Redefining Recovery: Insights from Everyday Addict

The only rule is to not use, and using is not a legitimate option to deal with what's going on in my life, and it can't be in yours either, because I don't want to go back to where I was.
Recovery can be a tricky concept to pin down, especially when it doesn't look the way you imagined. In this episode of 'Everyday Addict', host Brian Ario and his guests tackle this very issue. They dive into what recovery truly means, exploring the ups and downs that come with managing health, making informed choices, and identifying personal triggers.
It's not just about staying sober; it's about finding new coping skills, discovering purpose through work or volunteering, and understanding the importance of community and service work. The conversation also touches on how trauma and underlying issues play a role in the recovery journey. Brian emphasizes that the only rule is to not use substances as a way to cope. Flexibility and addressing problems as they come are key themes throughout this episode.
If you're navigating the path to recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a treasure trove of practical advice and heartfelt support.
