This podcast is essentially our group discussions on tape. The others joining me are all part of this Suboxone program at Midtown Health & Wellness in New York City. One of our recurring topics will be everyone's personal feelings about medication assisted recovery. The focus will not be so much on our past our addictions, but how we're navigating our individual paths toward physical and emotional health. Putting down the substance is just the beginning. What happens next...2022 Desarrollo Personal Enfermedades Físicas Higiene y Vida Saludable Éxito Personal

    Aug 10 2023
    There is no aspect of our lives that isn’t touched in some way by our recovery. Today we discuss how we incorporate meditation, exercise, diet and anything else we can add to benefit our mental and physical health. Recovery is not about putting down a substance, but what we do after that—how we take care of ourselves, live our lives and interact with others.

  • Family Systems

    “I was only hurting myself.” How many times have we heard that statement? Or; “No one knew what was going on with me.” There’s a pretty good chance everyone knew. Maybe not specifics, but we weren’t hiding anything. All of our family members took on roles as our addictions grabbed hold. Some enabled, some became angry, some refused to acknowledge the obvious, while still others may have kicked our sorry as*s out of their lives. There are infinite variations to these scenarios. When we got sober, we weren’t the only ones who had to change. The family, whether of origin or chosen, is greater than the sum of its parts. In family therapy, the identified patient isn’t the one singled out as the addict or the “problem.” The family as a whole is the patient. We’re all in this together! In this hour we also take a look at nature vs. nurture, or truthfully, nature plus nurture. They’re not at war but working together from the day we’re conceived, or perhaps long before, passed down through countless generations.

  • Triggers

    Triggers How does it feel when you’re applying for a new job and HR tells you a drug test is required? I was sober for two years when that came up and I still panicked. What if? What if? I don’t think I’d even taken an aspirin since getting sober, but those words—drug test—made me cringe. Triggers are sneaky. They hide in the shadows. It can be a color or smell, or as John said, the Costco parking lot. Keep your phones handy and phone a friend whenever the urge strikes. Sometimes sending a text to let someone know you’re “feeling it” can be enough to keep from doing something unfortunate.
