Brendan Thomas grew up in Connecticut with a loving family and a promising future—but one decision changed everything. After trying Oxy for the first time, he spiraled into an 8-year battle with drug addiction that led to heroin, drug dealing, and dropping out of college. In this interview, Brendan opens up about the darkest moments of his addiction, his many failed attempts to get clean, and the moment everything finally changed. Now sober and working as an EMT, he's saving the same kinds of lives he once nearly lost. #AddictionRecovery #OxyContinCrisis #HeroinAddictToEMT #FromAddictToHero #DrugAddictionStory #OvercomingAddiction #RecoveryJourney #lockedinpodcast Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Presented by Tyson 2.0 & Wooooo Energy: https://tyson20.com/ https://woooooenergy.com/ Buy Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop Timestamps: 00:00:00 Brendan Thomas's Journey 00:04:05 Nostalgia for Pre-Digital Childhood 00:08:26 Life-Changing Moment Witnessing Drug Use 00:13:11 High School Memories and Familial Obligations 00:17:47 The Desire to Fit In and Its Consequences 00:22:47 Facing the Consequences of Dr*g Use 00:27:25 Life in the Drug Economy: From Stash House to Street Deals 00:31:38 Struggles with Pills 00:36:29 Choosing Snorting Over Injecting 00:40:58 The Hidden Struggles in Families 00:45:08 Exploring a Day in the Life of Addiction 00:49:50 Consequences of Addiction and the Road to Recovery 00:54:41 Journey to Sobriety: A Personal Transformation 00:58:56 Dallas Years and Relapse 01:04:18 Vivitrol 01:09:14 Coping as a First Responder 01:13:38 Finding Hope and Inspiration in Adversity Powered by: Just Media House : https://www.justmediahouse.com/ Creative direction, design, assets, support by FWRD: https://www.fwrd.co Learn more about your ad choices.

Are You a Food Addict? Feel like you're constantly battling your cravings? You're not the only one. In this episode, I'm getting real about food addiction—the guilt, the frustration, and the confusion that comes with feeling out of control around food. Whether it's chips, sugar, or late-night snacking, it can feel like you're stuck in a cycle you can't escape. But here's what I want you to know: it's not about willpower. It's about wiring. I'm diving into the signs of food addiction, how it's different from emotional eating, and what might really be going on behind your toughest habits. I'll also share what healing has looked like in my own journey—hint: it's not about perfection, it's about awareness. Plus, I'll guide you through the first steps to breaking free without shame or restriction.

Seattle is facing a devastating crisis — open-air drug use, rising fentanyl overdoses, rampant homelessness, and a growing sense of lawlessness. But Mayor Bruce Harrell's administration is rolling out... sidewalk murals and decorative lighting.In this video, we break down the city's Downtown Activation Plan, which critics say is a tone-deaf, performative response to a humanitarian disaster. While murals and mood lighting might beautify the streets, they do little to address addiction, mental illness, and the collapse of public safety.Is this urban art initiative a step in the right direction or a distraction from real solutions? Join the conversation as we look at what residents are really asking for — treatment, law enforcement, and leadership that takes the crisis seriously.

What impacts you, may not impact a partner and vice versa. Childhood development personality and characteristic sharping experiences, play a significant part in that process.Sex Addicts need to take their shoes off and step into the shoes of a partner in order to see the relationship from the partner's vantage point and perspective. All clients with Sex and/or Porn Addiction have traits which come from Narcissism. (That does not mean they are necessarily to be diagnosed with NPD - Narcissistic Personality Disorder).Seeing life and the relationship from the vantage point of the impacted partner is going to be very scary for the Addict. It means that they have to set aside Narcissistic tendencies and embrace Empathy for a short while.That really is scary indeed for the Sex/Porn Addict with Narcissistic traits. Most of them believe that they are Empathic and 'do' for others. (I suggest that they are Empathic in a conditional way; only so long as something comes back to reward them for good deeds; but they cannot see it and would strongly object to this statement).I suggest that the antidote to Narcissism is Empathy. They both CANNOT co-exist at a high level of expression in the same person. Just like the same poles of a magnet repel each other, so it is with Narcissism and Empathy. Only one can rule and be (being) used at a higher degree than the other.Get some help from The Kairos Centre. See what you cannot see.

PBSE Podcast Episode 287 explores the recurring emotional turmoil experienced by a betrayed partner whose addict spouse continues to cycle through emotional relapses, despite seemingly engaging in recovery activities. Every six months, he emotionally regresses—questioning their relationship, doubting compatibility, and withdrawing connection—which destabilizes her sense of safety and triggers deep trauma. In her desperation for reassurance, she finds herself compulsively seeking emotional details, only to be retraumatized further. The article highlights that this dynamic, often driven by fear and confusion, creates a lopsided relationship where she becomes the emotional pursuer while he remains distant and inconsistent.The authors emphasize that this cycle cannot be broken by surface-level recovery or simply “doing the right things.” True healing requires the addict to engage in deeper emotional work, initiate vulnerability, express consistent gratitude, and offer proactive transparency. Simultaneously, the betrayed partner must establish clear boundaries, articulate her emotional needs, and begin shifting her support system to include emotionally safe, non-romantic relationships outside the marriage. These actions help her move from desperation to empowerment, offering both self-preservation and clarity around what kind of relationship she's willing to invest in.Ultimately, the article calls for both partners to be fully engaged—not just during crises, but consistently. Emotional safety, mutual respect, and honest communication are the pillars of sustainable recovery and intimacy. While the current cycle may feel hopeless, with intentional effort and deep personal work on both sides, it is possible to rebuild a relationship that is emotionally grounded, safe, and truly connected.For a full transcript of this podcast in article format, go to: My Addict Partner Keeps Going Through Cycles of Taking Me for Granted.

In this episode of "Philosophy from the Front Line," hosts discuss the concept of the "En Route Rally Point" and its relevance to veterans transitioning to civilian life. They explore the impact of leadership decisions on morale and credibility, using examples from military experiences. As we continue with the show, we will tie the lessons learned from the uniforms and inform our listening audience on additional skills that are transferable into the corporate workforce. One story involves a battalion commander removing vending machines, which was met with resistance due to a lack of alternative food sources. Another example highlights the positive impact of a leader who implemented a sterile uniform policy and PT competitions to foster discipline and camaraderie. The discussion emphasizes the importance of leader engagement, delegation, and the transferability of military skills to corporate environments.Disclaimer: The content of the "Philosophy From the Front Line" podcast is intended for informational and educational purposes only.

In this episode, we explore the extraordinary story of Cliff Young, the humble Australian potato farmer who became a national legend by winning the grueling 1983 Sydney to Melbourne Ultramarathon at the age of 61. With no formal training and dressed in work boots, Cliff stunned the world with his relentless determination, unique “Young Shuffle” running style, and unwavering spirit. Not only did he beat seasoned athletes by nearly two days, but he also captured hearts by selflessly sharing his prize money with fellow competitors. Cliff Young's journey is a testament to the power of perseverance, humility, and believing in yourself—no matter your age or background.   Please join Addict to Athlete's Patreon support page and help us turn the mess of addiction into the message of sobriety! https://www.patreon.com/addicttoathlete   Please visit our website for more information on Team Addict to Athlete and Addiction Recovery Podcasts. https://www.AddictToAthlete.org   Join the Team!

In this episode of Wake Up Look Up, host Zach Weihrauch tackles a striking question: could our desire for revenge be more than emotional—could it be addictive? Prompted by an article from The Wall Street Journal, Zach explores how revenge triggers the brain's reward systems like a drug, and how forgiveness, particularly through Jesus Christ, offers the only true path to healing. Learn why the cross isn't just a symbol of mercy, but the ultimate answer to justice—and how God's justice frees us to forgive, find peace, and break the cycle of bitterness.Have an article you'd like Pastor Zach to discuss?

ASHER G is a spiritual entrepreneur, human connection coach, and Rabbi in Southern California. His story began at home as a young child where all seemed well from the outside. As the youngest by nine years, he felt a horrible sense of abandonment. His loneliness was compounded by his father's prominence as a rabbi and community leader where the pressure to appear as role models was insufferable. This resulted in a childhood eating disorder and drug use by age 14. Asher was 33 when he lost his multi-million-dollar business, with the resulting bankruptcy destroying what little self-worth he had as a provider to his family – he had hit rock bottom. Asher found his road to recovery through the rooms of Alcoholics Anonymous, where despite the circle of anonymous faces, it was truly the first time in his life he felt the power of shared human connection through service to self and others. The experience marked the debut of an odyssey of self-discovery, trading ego for vulnerability, and leaving the pursuit of pleasure for the pursuit of meaning. Asher decidedly dedicated the rest of his career to helping others help themselves “restore wholeness” in their lives. Armed with a renewed sense of self, profound life experience, and entrepreneurial passion, Asher founded Transcend in 2008, building an internationally recognized recovery community. Now sober seventeen years and counting, Asher has counseled hundreds of men and women and built a renowned reputation where he is recognized by his three hallmark pillars of recovery; Accountability, Community, and Unconditional Love. Reco12 is an open-to-all addictions and afflictions organization, dedicated to exploring the common threads of addiction.

A powerful and important exploration of how addiction functions on social, psychological and biological levels, integrated with the experience of being an addict, from an acclaimed philosopher and former addict.What is addiction? Theories about what kind of thing addiction is are sharply divided between those who see it purely as a brain disorder, and those who conceive of it in psychological and social terms. Owen Flanagan, an acclaimed philosopher of mind and ethics, offers a state-of-the-art assessment of addiction science and proposes a new ecumenical model for understanding and explaining substance addiction.Flanagan has first-hand knowledge of what it is like to be an addict. That experience, along with his wide-ranging knowledge of the philosophy of mind, psychology, neuroscience, and the ethics and politics of addiction, informs this important and novel work. He pairs the sciences that study addiction with a sophisticated view of the consciousness-brain/body relation to make his core argument: that substance addictions comprise a heterogeneous set of "psychobiosocial" behavioral disorders. He explains that substance addictions do not have one set of causes, such as self-medication or social dislocation, and they do not have one neural profile, such as a dysfunction in dopamine system. Some addictions are fun and experimentation gone awry. Flanagan reveals addiction to be a heterogeneous set of disorders, which are picked out by multifarious cultural, social, psychological, and neural features.Flanagan explores the ways addicts sensibly insist on their own responsibility to undo addiction, as well as ways in which shame for addiction can be leveraged into healing. He insists on the collective shame we all bear for our indifference to many of the psychological and social causes of addiction and explores the implications of this new integrated paradigm for practices of harm reduction and treatment. Flanagan's powerful new book upends longstanding conventional thinking and points the way to new ways of understanding and treating addiction. Learn more about your ad choices.

In May of 2022, Elon Musk announced he would no longer support the Democrat party, citing them as having become the party of “division and hate.” The richest man in the world would go on to purchase Twitter and invest over $290 million into the 2024 election to get Donald Trump and Republican candidates elected. These two acts alone likely changed the course of the Right Wing movement in America forever. After the elections, he then left his businesses to work on cutting wasteful spending in the government via the Department of Government Efficiency, which went on to cost his companies millions in boycotts, arson, and negative press.But that honeymoon period is now over. Fed up with the proposed deficit increases and perceived snubs of Tesla and Starlink in the massive spending bill working its way through Congress, Elon Musk began to lash out at the bill and Republicans who supported it. Never one to let an insult slide, Donald Trump quickly became critical of Elon and his subsidies, and it devolved rapidly from there.Now the two most important individuals in the world are at bitter odds with one another. Elon accused Trump of appearing in the Epstein files; Trump shot back that he is a ketamine addict who should go back to Africa. No one can chart a path through the ticking time bombs of out-of-control spending, mass immigration, and trying to fund a government that spends over $200,000 per second.This episode is brought to you by our premier sponsors, Armored Republic and Reece Fund, as well as our Patreon members and donors.
