Addiction is complex, personal, and often misunderstood. In this special Q&A episode of Candid Minds with Dr. T and Friends, we tackle listener-submitted questions about addiction, substance use disorder, and behavioral dependencies. Co-host Nick shares his personal journey with alcohol and ADHD, while Dr. T breaks down the medical side of addiction—what it really is, why some people develop it while others don’t, and how it extends beyond substances to behaviors like social media and gambling. We also dive into misconceptions, relapse, enabling vs. supporting, and the key warning signs to look for in yourself or a loved one. Whether you’re struggling, supporting someone, or just curious, this episode provides real answers and real talk.
