If we're going to move the conversation forward around mental health and addiction, we need to create a culture of do, as I do not do, as I say.
Imagine a world where mental wellness and addiction aren't shrouded in mystery or stigma. In this episode, Preston Moore takes us into his recent presentation for the criminal justice and probation department, where he tackles these very issues head-on. Moore's mission? To demystify mental wellness and addiction, making them less of a taboo and more of a topic we can openly discuss. Moore starts by highlighting the heavy cost of keeping our struggles hidden.
Sharing our stories, he argues, can be a superpower, helping not just ourselves but others who might be going through similar battles. He dives deep into the emotional dysfunction that often lurks within family systems, showing how these dynamics can lead to substance abuse. He doesn’t shy away from tough truths, explaining how different types of homes can foster feelings of fear, insecurity, shame, and guilt.
Moore categorizes families into five types that mirror patterns of drug addiction and alcoholism, offering listeners a new perspective on how deeply rooted these issues can be. Throughout the episode, Moore emphasizes the importance of breaking the stigma surrounding mental health and addiction. He shares various resources available, from coaches to psychiatrists, stressing that action speaks louder than words. Creating a culture where mental health is as routine as a gym session is vital.
Moore also provides a treasure trove of resources for those seeking support, including books and support groups like Aca and Al-Anon. His message is clear: leading by example is crucial if we want to move the conversation forward around mental health and addiction. Tune in to this eye-opening episode with Preston Moore and get ready to challenge your perceptions about mental wellness and addiction. It’s time to break down the barriers and create a culture of understanding and action.
