#1 If you could have one gigantic billboard anywhere with anything on it – metaphorically speaking, getting a message out to millions or billions of people, what would it say and why?

#2 In the last five years, what new belief, behavior or habit has most improved your life?

#3 What advice would you give 10 year old you? What advice would you give 20 year old you?

What did we learn from the Street Views series of far? We talk about people selling their safe supply, the prevalence of "farming" (robbing ppl who are incapacitated by opioids), and some different takes on mandatory treatment. We discuss the gripping power of fentanyl and the ethical questions it raises for society.

Are You Co-Crazy? New Discoveries in Codependency with Dr. Sarah Michaud

Nathan McLean & Corey Williams — Thu, 30 Mar 2023 06:00:00 -0700

Psychologist and author, Dr. Sarah Michaud stops by to chat about her recent book Co-Crazy: One Psychologist’s Recovery from Codependency and Addiction. We ask her the following questions:

How would you define codependency and co-crazy?

Why do you think it’s so hard for some people to prioritize their own mental health before attempting to help others?

On Page 87, you wrote: Moving from thinking it is about everyone else to knowing it is about me = the beginning of healing. Can you tell us how you were able to make this important mental adjustment?

One Page 107, you wrote: As a child I felt responsible for my father’s happiness and felt controlled by him, which led to crippling fear of upsetting people – manifesting as the relentless low-grade chronic hum of anxiety. That’s a perfect description of what I refer to as the beehive. How do we calm the beehive?

Learning to set boundaries is a crucial skill. Voicing and being firm with what you’re willing to tolerate from others helps prevent resentment, anger, and confusion. On page 159, you talk about how setting boundaries takes courage, self-love, trust, and belief in your sanity and serenity. Where should people start if they’re having trouble drawing that line in the sand?

To hear more from Sarah, check out her new YouTube channel,

Nathan McLean & Corey Williams — Mon, 20 Mar 2023 09:00:00 -0700

We look at the Diagnostics and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders and discuss how the diagnostic criteria for substance use could be improved.

#DSM5 #drugaddiction #diagnosingaddiction

DSM-5-TR Substance Use Disorder Criteria:

A problematic pattern of use leading to clinically significant impairment or distress, as

manifested by at least two of the following, occurring within a 12 month period:

1. Taking the substance in larger amounts or for longer than you're meant to

2. Wanting to cut down or stop using the substance but not managing to

3. Spending a lot of time getting, using, or recovering from use of the substance

4. Cravings and urges to use the substance

5. Not managing to do what you should at work, home, or school because of substance use

6. Continuing to use, even when it causes problems in relationships

7. Giving up important social, occupational, or recreational activities because of substance use

8. Using substances again and again, even when it puts you in danger

9. Continuing to use, even when you know you have a physical or psychological problem that could have been caused or made worse by the substance

10. Needing more of the substance to get the effect you want (tolerance)

11. Development of withdrawal symptoms, which can be relieved by taking more of the substance

The 11 criteria outlined in the DSM-5-TR can be grouped into four primary categories: physical

dependence, risky use, social problems, and impaired control.

Severity of Substance Use Disorders:

The DSM-5-TR allows clinicians to specify how severe or how much of a problem the substance use disorder is, depending on how many symptoms are identified.

Mild: Two or three symptoms indicate a mild substance use disorder.

Moderate: Four or five symptoms indicate a moderate substance use disorder.

Severe: Six or more symptoms indicate a severe substance use disorder.

Problems with the DSM-5 criteria:

1. It’s almost impossible not to qualify for a SUD.

2. It doesn’t take into account autonomy or personal freedom.

3. The criteria are exacerbated by current drug laws and policies. These are not relevant to medical issues.

4. It diagnoses chronic pain patients with a SUD.

Suggestions as alternatives:

1. Do you currently have concerns about your health or well-being related to drug use?

2. Is drug use making it difficult to achieve your goals?

3. Is drug use causing you to self-isolate or making it harder to connect with people?

4. Have you tried to cut back on your drug of choice but found it difficult or impossible?

5. Are you currently physically dependent on a substance? In other words, would you suffer from withdrawal symptoms or feel sick or anxious if you suddenly stopped taking your drug of choice?

6. Do you feel that the way you use drugs leads to more negative than positive experiences?

Recovery Is A Strange Word

Nathan McLean & Corey Williams — Fri, 13 Jan 2023 09:00:00 -0700

Recovery is a strange word. What does it mean? How do we use it? Corey and Nathan articulate what the word means to them as individuals and what it means in the world of drug addiction.

#recovery #drugaddiction #addictionrecovery #definerecovery

Dictionary definition:

1. a return to a normal state of health, mind, or strength.

2. the action or process of regaining possession or control of something stolen or lost.

Commonly Used: in the process of recovering from mental illness, drug addiction, or past abuse.

Are we always in recovery? When does recovery stop and recovered begin? Is it a length of time? A state of maintenance? How does personal growth fit into recovery?

Given the state of politics and the impending blue wave, how will even the best-intentioned politician move forward with Safe Supply? Does the average citizen in B.C. care enough or know enough about Harm Reduction and Safe Supply? Corey and Nathan do their best to make a prediction.

When is it okay to step in and take control of someone else's life? Legal calorie restriction for people who are overweight? Forced feeding for people who are underweight? How do we decide who gets to decide?

Can you be Addicted to Drugs and Free at the Same Time? A Question of Autonomy

Nathan McLean & Corey Williams — Tue, 20 Sep 2022 09:00:00 -0700

If Joe Random is a chronic user of drugs and suffers horrible withdrawal symptoms when

he runs out of supply, how much personal freedom or autonomy to make decisions

does Joe really have?

News: Toxic Drug Crisis has now claimed over 10000 lives since 2016.

Nathan McLean & Corey Williams — Mon, 22 Aug 2022 09:00:00 -0700

Internation Overdose Awareness Day approaches. Here in BC, the death toll continues to climb, building momentum yearly as new adulterants and higher potency drugs are improvised to evade law enforcement. We know it's getting worse, and we know how to stop it. As we enter the seventh year of emergency status, one starts to wonder -- will this ever end?

Cassidy RN - Back Into The Wild

Nathan McLean & Corey Williams — Sat, 06 Aug 2022 10:00:00 -0700

***Trigger warning*** sexual abuse is mentioned in this episode.

***Cassidy's dogs became very anxious during the more emotional parts of the interview. They felt that some of the questions were too personal and were simply voicing their concern. Please forgive them. They love her very much.***

ER Nurse Cassidy joins us for an interview after her recent completion of a three-year monitoring contract. She gives us a candid description of her past and details an upbringing that encouraged her to tough it out and never ask for help. We discuss the trajectory of her struggle and how substance use became less about fun and more about coping with pain.

Cassidy describes her successes in treatment and her disappointments with The Machine. She recounts her frustrations with monitoring, including some alarming details about criminal misconduct during the drug screening process.

Cassidy's story is both disturbing and inspiring, frustrating and uplifting. It's a story that should make you feel uncomfortable -- it's a story that you need to hear.

You'll Probably Want a Map

Nathan McLean & Corey Williams — Wed, 27 Jul 2022 09:00:00 -0700

Project ROADMAP is discussed. We plan to dispel some darkness by compiling data directly from the Machine. The results of such an undertaking would hopefully provide guidance for healthcare workers who are beginning the arduous process of reclaiming their mental health.

Addiction treatment for healthcare workers can be a chaotic process. As such, any tool that can provide even the most general sense of direction is highly valuable.

Let us know what you think. Let us know what we missed or what you feel we need to add.

If you were setting out on a journey -- a journey known to be particularly perilous, wouldn't you want a guide? How about someone who had successfully completed such a voyage? Seems reasonable. Maybe this could be a simple change that facilitates connection and makes the machine look a little less daunting. Wanna hear more? Take a listen...

On the Recovery Machine podcast, Corey and Nathan continue their series on positive changes to drug addiction treatment for healthcare workers. Could a healthcare worker with lived-experience help another healthcare worker with substance use disorder?
