Can You Ever Fully Recover from Alcoholism or Addiction? Functional Alcoholics and AI-Turned-Enabler

“Recovered” versus “recovering” alcoholic. Which is correct? Dan discusses the physical triggers of relapse like alcohol-laced desserts and the difference between high-bottom and low-bottom addicts. AI models are encouraging recovering addicts to relapse due to their approval-seeking programming! Elon Musk has been accused of drug use — lot of high-performers do it. Do antidepressants work? Safe tapering strategies (with medical supervision). How spiritual wellness and physical health must work together. Dan talks about new dental tech — regrowing teeth! Also, a tragic cancer TikToker refuses treatment, and the emotional roots of illness like cancer. Ep. 0029
