How I Almost Relapsed, And What Stopped Me
This is a really raw conversation about romanticizing relapse and the shame we feel about even having those thoughts. They say in recovery "just tell someone before you relapse." Well, truth be told, it's not that easy. What if we normalized the conversation about relapse, because the majority of people in recovery have experienced it. Wouldn't that make it easier for someone to come forward and share with someone else that they're thinking about it. If we carry shame about even the thought of it, then most people won't/don't say anything to anyone fearing their reaction. Here's my very candid conversation with a good recovery friend of mine, Tyler Tisdale, who owns one of the premiere recovery centers in Arizona: Pinnacle Peak Recovery.
