It's not a matter of strength, it's a matter of directly looking at options.
Have you ever wondered if addiction really means you're weak or that substances hold some magical power over you? In this episode of 'The Freedom Model for Addictions', hosts Mark Scheeren and Michelle Dunbar tackle these common misconceptions head-on. They argue against the notion that addiction is a lifelong disease and question the effectiveness of traditional rehab and 12-step programs like Alcoholics Anonymous.
Instead, they offer a refreshing perspective that sees addiction as a temporary issue, not a battle of willpower. The hosts dive into scientific studies and real-life examples to debunk the myths perpetuated by the treatment industry and society at large. This episode is packed with eye-opening insights and challenges the status quo, making it a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is.
Tune in to hear a candid, non-judgmental discussion that might just change the way you think about addiction.
