Extra! Extra! Recovery in the News ¡GetSmart! With Erin Moore Crossover Episode
RMA-Episode 65 Show Notes:
This week on RMA, Erin Moore returns to the podcast to discuss addiction, connection, alienation and Maia Szalavitz’s recent Op-Ed in the NY Times, Opioids Feel Like Love. That’s Why They’re Deadly in Tough Times. What is the relationship between our endogenous opiate system and social disconnection? Can connecting with other people really lower our propensity for addiction? Tune in to hear the discussion.
Plus, Recovery in the News, The Week in Weird, Monksters Speak and a holiday themed life update, on a contented, stress-free, yet occasionally anhedonic episode of Recovery in the Middle Ages
