We have all heard of people becoming institutionalized. They get to the point where they don’t know how to live outside of some kind of facility, usually it’s jail and/or prison, or rehab. It’s sad but it really does happen. Being on addictive drugs is very similar. We’ve all heard people say they use drugs every day but they don’t even get high any more, I used to say that all the time, and I wholeheartedly believed it. I have since realized that I must’ve been high. Addicts get to the point where being high is their normal, they don’t know what being sober even feels like, unless we call detoxing and being in withdrawal “normal.” Breaking people, particularly addicts who are new to sobriety out of those mindsets has got to become more of a priority.
In this episode, I discuss being institutionalized and the druggy mindset, just kind of laying the foundation for future episodes that we can dive into this topic further. Oh, I also teach you how to make “squeeze cheese,” what drinking Foxy is and how I managed to get better food in jail…but you’re going to have to listen if you want to know about those things. Haha not sorry.
Love you all!
