#137: Revolution Recovery and the power of stories (ft. Meghann Perry)
Manage episode 362911533 series 2661646
We are joined by Meghann Perry from 'REVOLUTION Recovery' to discuss the the fundamental issue with viewing a patient as a subject / object / recipient / commodity and the victim blaming mentality that is helping no one.
We explore the repeated trauma of 'In-take', how substances don't always cause addiction and the obvious - but often unsaid truth - that the desire for substances often comes from a need for fun, joy or a sense of community.
We also discuss why the stories we tell ourselves are so important vs. the stories that are told about us by others and the importance of play.
Part 2 of this conversation is a patron only episode. Become a patron at patreon.com/itsnotjustinyourhead to gain early access to episodes, our discord server, and monthly reading/discussion groups.
