Substance Use Disorder 101 - How much is too much? with Leah Young
Manage episode 415931360 series 2832604
In our next two episodes, we will explore a disorder affecting nearly one in five Americans - Substance Use Disorder (SUD). From knowing when your patterns are problematic, to building new neural pathways, to measuring success - we want to dig deep. And we’ve got the incredible expertise of Leah Young to show us why there’s so much reason for hope when dealing with addictive behaviors and substances.
You can think of today’s podcast as Substance Use Disorder 101. It answers the questions, “How do you know if your use of alcohol or drugs is a problem?” and “Are you exhibiting problematic addictive behaviors?” We will cover topics like
- Early warning signs
- Denial
- Sober curiosity
- Next steps for getting support.
Our second episode will examine recovery models for SUD - abstinence, moderation, and harm reduction - and how to know what works for you.
