Mike McGowan is host of Avoiding the Addiction Affliction brought to you by Westword's Consulting and the Kenosha County Substance Use Disorder Coalition. Here we discuss another story we have in common. We talk about the stigma of being Irish and thought to automatically be an alcoholic. I also talk about my research into my Irish heritage which I was unaware of for decades.

Rhonda Nelson, renowned patient advocate author and speaker. Her most important interest is AERD ,Aspirin-Exacerbated Respiratory Disease , also known as Samter's Triad. This is a chronic medical condition that typically develops in adulthood, usually between the ages of 20 and 50. Here are some key points about AERD:

Most people with AERD have asthma that often does not respond well to conventional treatments. Recurrent nasal polyps are common, leading to chronic sinus infections and a loss of sense of smell. Sensitivity to NSAIDs, such as increased nasal congestion, frontal headache, sinus pain, sneezing, cough, wheezing, and chest tightness.

About 75% of patients with AERD develop mild-to-moderate respiratory reactions when they drink alcohol.

Rhonda, along with her husband Wayne Nelson, the lead singer of the Little River Band, has shared her journey of living with AERD to help others understand and manage this challenging condition

Instead of fixing peoples’ messes, Bronwyn’s goal is to elicit feelings people are most ashamed to have, such as hatred and rage. She knows that even though feelings are invisible, they don’t evaporate, but store away in our bodies until processed.

According to Bronwyn, these feelings haunt us and cause mental and physical illness until we express them into words with someone who can hear and validate them. She especially loves playing midwife in this way, helping her clients – and now, her podcast listeners – externalize painful feelings once and for all. She has experienced success in helping people break free of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, even psychosis, by reconnecting them to their anger, and healing their relationship with anger, and with themselves.
