Description

Is addiction really a disease — or have we been misled by decades of stigma and funding bias? In this video, Jack Nagle dives deep into the controversial debate around the disease model of addiction. Drawing on insights from neuroscientist Dr. Carl Hart, 12-step programs, and his own lived experience, Jack challenges the idea that addiction is purely a “spiritual” or “brain disease.”He explores how the disease narrative can both help and harm people in recovery, why many studies may be biased, and what a more empowering, human approach to addiction could look like.👉 Watch to the end to discover why Jack believes addiction isn’t a disease — and what he thinks it really is.
