What makes a support group truly effective for women struggling with substance use? In this episode of 'The Beyond Addiction Show', Dr. Josh King sits down with Adrienne Miller, the president and CEO of Women for Sobriety, to explore just that. Women for Sobriety is a national self-help group dedicated to helping women change their relationship with substances in a supportive, all-female environment.
Adrienne shares why having a women-only group is crucial, highlighting how it provides a safe space where women can openly discuss their unique challenges and experiences with substance use. The episode dives into the core exercises the group uses, like positive affirmations and self-talk practices, which are designed to help women build a positive self-image and manage their thoughts more effectively.
Adrienne also addresses the role of medications in recovery, clarifying that Women for Sobriety does not view medication use as a violation of abstinence. Instead, the focus is on creating a supportive community where women can build lifelong relationships and work towards a life worth living. For those interested in getting involved, Adrienne provides insights on how to find local meetings and connect with group leaders.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the unique needs of women in recovery and how tailored support can make a significant difference.
