So we're going to take the mystery out of it and we're going to go through Chapter Four a little bit here in the freedom model for addictions, because we cover this and the name of Chapter Four- sorry, you're going to hear the pages turn- is: why do I keep doing this? No, right, it's something that's beyond your free will. You prefer it because it has benefits to you personally, and we've talked about this over and over in many of the podcasts.
Ever wondered why some people can't seem to stay away from alcohol or drugs, even after swearing them off? This episode of 'The Freedom Model for Addictions' dives into the reasons behind a strong preference for intoxication. Hosts Mark Scheeren and Michelle Dunbar challenge the common belief that addiction is a disease, arguing instead that it's a matter of habit and personal choice.
They take a critical look at traditional rehab and 12-step programs, suggesting these methods might actually hinder recovery rather than help it. The conversation also touches on how societal norms and personal habits contribute to the cycle of addiction. If you're tired of the same old narratives around addiction recovery, this episode offers a refreshing perspective. The hosts provide practical tips for breaking free from dependency and emphasize the importance of taking control of your own recovery journey.
This episode is perfect for anyone questioning conventional addiction treatments or seeking new ways to understand and overcome addiction.
