If you believe that a relapse means you have to "start over at Day One," you need to understand the neuroscience of addiction. In this episode, we expose how a routine surgery turned into a prescription trap that nearly ended a 22-year sobriety streak—and how science, not dogma, saved Bob’s life.

In this video we cover:

The Pain Clinic Trap: How the medical system creates dependency while hiding in plain sight.

Biology vs. Morality: Why Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) stabilizes neurochemistry (dopamine) in ways willpower cannot.

The MARA Method: A breakdown of "Medication-Assisted Recovery Anonymous" and why Harm Reduction is replacing the "all or nothing" model.

Escaping the Shame Cycle: Why Bob stopped calling himself an "addict" and started focusing on safety.

This video is for anyone tired of being told their struggle is a "character defect." It’s time to stop fighting your brain and start healing it.
