What is the Reality of Recovery?

Substance use and addiction are more than what you expect, and so is the path to recovery. In this episode we are exploring what addiction means and what recovery looks like behind the scenes. Eric Martin, Pawnee Mental Health’s Recovery Services Manager, helps us navigate this conversation by expanding expectations and showing us the reality of recovery. We will touch on topics such as relapse, the impact of your community, and getting to the root of addiction.Have questions, thoughts, or stories you want to share? We would love to hear from you!
