Why do we keep going back to drugs or alcohol — even when we swear we're done?

In this episode of Real Recovery Talk, Tom, Ben, and Jeff dive deep into the uncomfortable truth: for many, addiction becomes worship. It's not just about the substances — it's about what we're running from, what we're trying to fill, and the void that only a higher power or spiritual awakening can heal.

Jeff, from Reprieve Treatment Center, shares his personal story of overdose, survival, and discovering true freedom in recovery. The guys discuss detox myths, the emotional and spiritual roots of addiction, and how to finally find peace without drugs.
