Dr. Dallas Bragg and Andrew Moses discuss their experiences with drug addiction and the unique challenges faced by the queer community. They emphasize the importance of perspective shifts and changing one's relationship with oneself in the recovery process. They also highlight the limitations of traditional 12-step programs and offer alternative approaches to healing, focusing on physical health, trauma, and somatics. The conversation explores the impact of shame, the need for compassion and understanding, and the role of self-acceptance in the recovery journey. Dr. Dallas Bragg discusses the importance of reframing relapse as a slip-up and emphasizes that individuals do not lose all their progress when they slip up. Instead, they can learn from the slip-up and build resilience. Anticipation is a key tool in avoiding slip-ups, as it allows individuals to develop strategies to navigate challenging moments. Dr. Bragg also highlights the significance of understanding the underlying trauma and dysregulation that often drive substance abuse. He encourages individuals to reorient their relationship with themselves, build self-worth and self-trust, and engage in self-support and self-nurturing.
Andrew Moses, a coach and mentor from Melbourne, Australia, is known as the Queer Drug Coach on TikTok, where he has been sharing his insights for almost 2 years. His journey with substance abuse began in his early 20s with Oxycontin and culminated with methamphetamine in his early 30s. Drawing from his personal experiences and his work with queer individuals globally who struggle with substances, Andrew has developed a unique approach to healing. He adopts a non-12 step method that emphasizes compassion, trauma healing, and somatic practices. Andrew believes that substance abuse enters our lives to impart valuable lessons, and by cultivating self-compassion, acceptance, and understanding, individuals can navigate through challenges and evolve into their highest selves.
