Listen "Under the Influence: A Drunk or a Disease"
Episode Synopsis
In today's episode of the Recovery Daily Podcast, I explore the critical distinction between "being a drunk" and "having the disease of alcoholism." Drawing insights from the book "Under the Influence: A Life-Saving Guide to the Myths and Realities of Alcoholism," I discuss the stigmatization of the term "drunk" and how understanding alcoholism as a disease can transform our approach to recovery. I discuss the physical and psychological components of alcoholism, the importance of acceptance, and the multifaceted nature of treatment. Join me as I unravel the complexities of this misunderstood health condition and discover the path to true healing and freedom.
