Many people experience addiction in silence, and while substances like alcohol, nicotine, and drugs are commonly recognized, they are far from the only forms addiction can take. In this episode, Dr. Andrew and Dr. Dave break down the diverse pathways that can lead someone into addictive behaviours and discuss why the journey toward recovery is often so challenging. They also explore the mental health conditions that frequently occur alongside addiction, shedding light on how interconnected and complex these struggles can be.
