Compassionate Recovery
Addiction often serves as a misguided attempt to cope with deep-seated trauma and feelings of shame. Instead of blame, what is truly needed is compassion and curiosity towards the parts of ourselves that struggle. By embracing self-forgiveness and connecting with these wounded aspects, healing can occur spontaneously, allowing individuals to confront their fears without the numbing effects of addiction.In this clip

I have a question about this episode 72: Adi Jaffe, Ph.D., On Wellness Addiction, Shame & What It Really Takes To Transform Your Life and this Beyond Abstinence. I struggle with addiction; I start drinking or using drugs, and it gets bad quickly, with 3-day hangovers and week-long withdrawals. I’ll get sober, but a week or two later, I relapse. Sometimes it's worse than others, depending on how fast I decide I need to stop. I’m severely depressed and tired of living like this. I get no joy or tranquility, which makes me give in to drinking and drugs again. I desperately want to be sober and find peace. Is there anything specific I can focus on, such as vitamins, gut health, or other lifestyle changes, to break this vicious cycle?
