To begin with, helping other people tends to take the attention off of yourself, something that can be of enormous benefit for a recovering addict. Rather than continuing to focus on your own problems and the physical aspects of recovery, your attention turns outward onto the other person. When you assist the other person in making progress and receive gratitude for your efforts, this reward can give you an enormous boost in your own happiness and sense of well-being. In fact, the experience of helping can become an “addiction” in its own right, as you may find that you enjoy it so much that it takes on a high level of importance in your life. Another reason that providing help can be advantageous for a recovering addict is that it gives an opportunity to gain perspective. As you progress through your own recovery, it is easy to lose sight of how far you have come and even to become critical of yourself when you feel cravings. By working to help another person who is headed down the same road as you are, you get to look back and see where you started. You will tend to recognize in that person’s situation many of the same types of barriers that you faced, and you will be able to provide meaningful encouragement, since you yourself were up against those obstacles and have now successfully overcome them. It is from this viewpoint that a percentage of people who complete the treatment or rehab programs end up deciding to stay on and join the staff. Helping others is simply a great way to feel good!

The old saying “laughter is the best medicine” has a lot of truth to it. Laughter has many healing properties that are not limited to just mental health or reducing stress.

Depression is accompanied by suppression of the pleasure-enhancing neurochemicals in the brain. Persons suffering from chronic depression often admit, “Nothing is funny to me.” Laughter reverses this process by triggering the release of feel-good neurohormones, such as endorphins and dopamine. Researchers believe that laughter activates the pleasure pathways in the brain. Join us as we discuss the importance of laughter in life.

Being kind to yourself is a skill you can learn and practice. Here are some suggestions on ways to start being kind to yourself. Carve out ‘me-time’-Taking time to unplug from your computer, the continuous stream of social media updates, overflowing email inbox, is a great way to recharge the mind, body and soul. So is yoga and meditation. Acknowledge your feelings and emotions - Being kind to yourself means allowing yourself to feel whatever it is you are feeling at that moment. Instead of judging your emotions or trying to numb them, you give yourself permission to experience them, without judging yourself. Take care of yourself-One of the best ways to show yourself kindness is to take good care of yourself. This includes nourishing yourself with enough food and taking care of your body Give yourself recognition-When was the last time you acknowledged and appreciated yourself?  Many people find it easier to acknowledge the strengths and achievements of others than to acknowledge their own. Accept and appreciate yourself-Self-acceptance means that you stop trying to change yourself into the person you’re not and at the same time be open to discovering the real and beautiful person that you are. We all have strengths and weaknesses, we all make silly mistakes and we all fail every now and then. Tell yourself “I am good enough” -At some point, we are all guilty of some negative self-talk or labeling ourselves as either good or bad, which is often the result of feelings of unworthiness or shame. It can be helpful to put a more positive perspective on things and replace negative thoughts. Can you think of other ways to be kind to yourself?

Mental and physical illness, poverty, trauma and isolation can make fitting into mainstream society difficult. Alcohol and drug use is frequently seen as an effective way to deal with problems that might otherwise feel overwhelming. From time to time, people ask for help. Sometimes the assistance provided is helpful, other times it is not. At any given time, there are enough people asking for help that those who slip away can easily go unnoticed, returning to lives of despair, where alcohol and drugs can be counted upon to numb feelings that never seem to go away. Sometimes, those people die. It can be said that stigma kills. On this episode Dog Face and Squid discuss how the stigma can push a person in need of help to the end of their rope. Also, how we can help remove the stigma and help people by getting the word out and not be disgraced for doing so. Most importantly people who are already suffering should not feel ashamed or afraid to ask for help. Finally, Dog and Squid will remind the audience of some people who may have a lot to lose by coming foward and talking about their addiction and did so anyway..Tune in!! 00:56:00Dogface and Squidnoaddiction recovery,addiction,stigma of mental illness,alcoholism,Alcoholics AnonymousFor many people in recovery, stigma is a constant companion.

Many individuals with PTSD will turn to drugs or alcohol as a way to numb their pain or to gain some measure of control in their lives. Chronic substance abuse creates a complicated Dual Diagnosis, or the co-existence of a serious psychiatric disorder and an addictive disorder. Recovering from this Dual Diagnosis requires a careful exploration of the causes of PTSD, combined with treatment for drug or alcohol addiction. In this episode Dog Face and Squid discuss their own experience with PTSD and Addiction and how they are related.  Thank you www.bensound.com for the promo music.  01:00:00Dogface and Squidnopost traumatic stress,addiction,PTSD,ptsd treatment,PTSD veteransDog Face and Squid share their experience with PTSD and Addiction.eea38b85-64d1-4d19-ae5e-9dbc32b90afe111fullhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/dogfaceandsquid/2019/04/16/addiction-as-a-disease-and-how-substance-use-changes-the-brainSelf Helphttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/dogfaceandsquid/2019/04/16/addiction-as-a-disease-and-how-substance-use-changes-the-brain/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/dogfaceandsquid/2019/04/16/addiction-as-a-disease-and-how-substance-use-changes-the-brainTue, 16 Apr 2019 23:00:00 GMTAddiction as a Disease and How Substance Use Changes the BrainAddiction disrupts parts of the brain that are responsible for reward, motivation, learning and judgement.

Prolonged abuse of drugs and/or alcohol will deteriorate a person’s physical health, impair his or her mental functioning and damage the spirit. But how will these adverse effects impact the addict’s immediate family? Every single person in an addict’s immediate family (and at times extended family) is affected in some way by the individual’s substance abuse. Addiction impacts a family’s finances, physical health and psychological well being.  Each addict’s situation is different, which means that each family’s situation is unique. This makes it impossible to assign a universal causal relationship between substance abuse and family functioning. In most families, the impact of addiction is overwhelmingly negative, with few exceptions. In this episode Dog and Squid Discuss their experience and provide loved ones of addicts some comfort knowing how they can cope. There are many resources for family to get help and understand the addict's battles with addiction, alcoholism and mental health. Join us and call in with your stories or questions @ 929-477-1661.
