In this episode we talk to Sarah Rollins from the University of Michigan Addiction Treatment Services department to break down addiction, substance abuse disorder, and how the pandemic has affected addiction and substance use rates. We chat about red flags, relapse, how addiction affects the brain, myths and misconceptions about addiction, length of recovery, and treatment options.  Sarah talks about how our value systems affect our addiction cycle, and how the use of substances compromise those values in ways that cause us distress.  We also talk about the barriers to long term care, access to treatment challenges,  and the how to give yourself grace if you are struggling with addiction.
