In this candid episode of the Sober Friends Podcast, Matt opens up about his recent decision to start taking prescribed stimulant medication for his ADHD while maintaining his sobriety. He and Steve tackle the complex question many in recovery face: does taking prescribed medication break sobriety? Together, they explore the responsibility that comes with medication management in recovery, the importance of transparency with your support network, and how to balance necessary medical treatment while staying true to your recovery journey. This conversation provides valuable insights for anyone in recovery who may be struggling with mental health conditions requiring medication, offering practical advice on maintaining accountability and making informed decisions about your health while protecting your sobriety.
