Is addiction really a brain disease, or have we been misled? On this eye-opening episode of the Virtually Anything Goes Podcast, we sit down with Professor Derek Heim from Edge Hill University, a leading voice in the psychology of addiction. In this episode, Professor Derek Heim challenges the traditional narrative by suggesting that addiction may be more of a societal label for undesirable behaviors rather than an actual disorder. We dissect the nuances between habits and addictions, urging listeners to consider these behaviors as normal actions with adverse consequences rather than pathologies. This thought-provoking discussion aims to reframe how we understand and address addiction, offering a fresh perspective that highlights the power of individual agency in overcoming addictive behaviors.Stigma is a major barrier preventing people from seeking help, and we dive into its ramifications on health and socio-economic status. From the ethical dilemmas around gambling advertisements to the necessity of supportive environments, we tackle the multifaceted approach needed to combat addiction. Professor Derek Heim sheds light on the importance of specialized support programs for veterans and the significant role friends and family play in recovery. We also explore societal strategies for reducing substance consumption and the positive impact of peer influence. With this episode, we aim to reduce stigma, foster understanding, and empower listeners to believe in their capacity for change. Join us for an enlightening conversation that could redefine how we collectively combat addiction.If you have been affected by any of the topics discussed in this episode, take a look at these additional resources:- UK SMART Recovery: https://smartrecovery.org.uk/- The Adullam Programme: https://www.adullamprogramme.co.uk/- NHS: https://www.nhs.uk/live-well/addiction-support/drug-addiction-getting-help/- UK Government Debt Advice: https://www.gov.uk/debt-adviceThis episode is part of our Expert Series, where we speak to experts from a variety of different backgrounds, including Sleep & Insomnia, Addiction, Public Speaking, Eye Surgery, Crisis Communications, and even Magic!

In this episode of the Recovered Live Show, host Damon Frank interviews Jay Chase, a recovery coach and leadership expert. Jay shares his personal journey of hitting rock bottom and restarting his life in sobriety.

As a recovery coach and leadership expert, Jay now helps others navigate through their own process of restarting their lives in sobriety.===============================Jay Chasehttps://pxl.to/uwhca1jg===============================

Today we are listening to Jay's story. We dive into what their life in addiction was like and what their life in sobriety is like now.The episode of The Recovered Life Show, "How I Did It," features an inspiring interview with Jay, a man from Boston, Massachusetts, who has been sober for over thirteen years. Jay's story of overcoming alcoholism and finding recovery is one of hope and determination. He candidly shares how he first noticed a problem with his drinking in high school and how it escalated to a daily binge blackout drinking. He talks about his difficult journey to hitting rock bottom and how he found the strength to turn his life around. Jay Keith's story of redemption is powerful and illustrates that no matter how hopeless a situation may seem, there is always a way out and a path to a better life. He shares how he went to an AA meeting and took the suggestion to go to 90 meetings in 90 days, which helped him find support and a safe place for him to begin to heal. He also shares how he initially found the recovery process difficult and miserable, but he knew that he had to keep going, and this is how he found the payoff of sobriety. Through his honesty, resilience, and faith, Jay's story inspires anyone struggling with addiction and seeking a way to recover.===============================

Dave grew up in Manhattan, and since he could remember, he always wanted to be a TV show host.  He would watch all the famous late-night shows and TV shows with his mom growing up.  Regis Philbin would make him feel relaxed, and was a huge inspiration for him. In his early teenage years, Dave always thought of drug users as “poseurs” and was never interested in them.  One night though after drinking heavily at a party, he started smoking pot, to help with his nausea.  His first real drug experience was taking Acid at a Grateful Dead concert his Junior year in High School.  Not too long after that, his drug use quickly escalated to heroin use. In his early 20's, Dave was in & out of rehab multiple times, but it finally took on his 3rd time trying.  Dopey Podcast hosts Dave and Chris first met at a rehab center in Connecticut in 2011, where they were both getting help.  Dave worked (and still works at) the famous Katz Deli in Manhattan, New York.  At first, he wanted to do a show about “The Last Jewish Waiter” based on his experience at the deli.  He soon realized that his life was mess and needed to focus on his well-being and getting help.  Chris still liked the idea of doing something with the waiter thing, and it eventually morphed into the podcast they have now. Dave & Chris founded the Dopey Podcast in 2016.  Their style was a little different than other podcasts; they didn't focus on recovery stories, as they found them boring.  Instead, they would tell their “war stories” of their addiction and using years, with doses of edgy humor mixed in.  They've had some amazing guests like Dr. Drew Pinsky, Marc Maron & Jamie Lee Curtis.  In 2018, Chris was getting his PhD, working in a sober house, and was engaged to his new found love.  His life was on the right track, but started falling back into bad habits. Supposedly, he had been injured while on vacation with his girlfriend, was prescribed painkillers, and soon was again taking heroin and other substances.  Shortly after, Chris passed away from a drug overdose.  When he died, Dave plugged himself back into his rehab support system, by attending meetings.  He was determined to not relapse.  Dave has no plans to get another co-host, and now does the show solo.  Also, hear some of Dave's tales of meeting and partying with celebrities at the world famous Katz's Deli.

Today's topic is near and dear to my heart as I have worked in the mental health field for over 25 years.   Addiction is complex, yet at the same time, such a simple thing that you can fall into without recognizing it. Nobody decides they're going to be an addict. Addiction can be heartbreaking and hard to weave ourselves out of.   Today's discussion will focus on what support natural solutions can offer for those suffering with addictions.   Host: Rebecca Hintze Guest Speaker: Roxanne Wheeler

Co-founded by writers Ruthie Friendlander and Christina Grasso, the group is particularly active during NYFW, supporting and connecting their community. The Chain's message is useful to anyone regardless of industry who has struggled with body image and disordered eating. I met the founders at one of their events this spring and loved their vulnerability in how they discussed their recovery ups and downs. I've learned a lot from them, like how disordered eaters tend to be good liars and that self honesty and support are key to true recovery. We recorded this in Ruthie's apartment this summer and covered their experience with disordered eating, what helped them, as well as what they've created with The Chain. My friend writer Rose Truesdale appears in the intro where we talk about travel and disordered eating a bit too, enjoy this episode.

It is being able to choose food you like and eat it and truly get enough of it-not just stop eating because you think you should. Normal eating is being able to use some moderate constraint in your food selection to get the right food, but not being so restrictive that you miss out on pleasurable foods. Normal eating is giving yourself permission to eat sometimes because you are happy, sad or bored, or just because it feels good. Normal eating is three meals a day, most of the time, but it can also be choosing to munch along. It is leaving some cookies on the plate because you know you can have some again tomorrow, or it is eating more now because they taste so wonderful when they are fresh. Normal eating is overeating at times: feeling stuffed and uncomfortable. It is also under eating at times and wishing you had more. Normal eating is trusting your body to make up for your mistakes in eating. Normal eating takes up some of your time and attention, but keeps its place as only one important area of your life. In short, normal eating is flexible. It varies in response to your emotions, your schedule, your hunger, and your proximity to food."

Show Topic: When parents are in the throes of their addiction it is no secret that their children suffer. Children of all age groups experience the effects of their parent's addiction, probably the older they are the worse the experience, with elementary and high school age probably being the worst group.  Resuming that parent - child relationship is not as easy as getting off drugs and jumping back into their lives. Its a process and some parents in recovery forget..............that its not all about YOU!  We'll discuss this process and ways to make that re-entry smoother.
