What if the terms we use to describe alcohol addiction could change the way we approach treatment?
This episode features Jonathan Hunt Glassman, healthcare entrepreneur and CEO of Oar Health, who shares his transformative journey from struggling with alcohol addiction to pioneering innovative approaches in alcohol use disorder (AUD) treatment. Jonathan breaks down why the term "alcohol use disorder" is crucial for fostering a more inclusive and precise understanding, and recounts his personal struggle, emphasising the pivotal role of medication in his recovery journey.
We dive deep into the debate between moderation and abstinence, exploring the importance of individualised approaches to alcohol consumption. You’ll hear personal stories from both Jonathan and the host about the challenges and triumphs of navigating early-stage sobriety and the critical role that setting clear goals plays. From the benefits of a Dry January to the complexities of sticking to moderation in social settings, this discussion offers valuable insights into finding what works best for you.
Finally, we unpack the diverse options for AUD treatment, emphasising the "toolkit" approach tailored to individual needs. Mutual peer support groups, professional behavioural healthcare, and prescription medications like Naltrexone are all explored as complementary methods. Jonathan stresses that it’s never too late to seek change and that multiple paths exist to help you or your loved ones build a better tomorrow.
Tune in to discover how a combination of strategies can lead to a successful recovery journey!
