As a person in long-term recovery, my idea is to really break it down and make sure that they understand that I'm on their level.
Mm-hmm.
I know what it's like to be a person who's lost agency.
I know what it's like to not be able to control my behaviors based on my desire to pathologically pursue reward.
So first, I want to identify with them and make them feel not alone.
As a physician, it's the idea that I'm really looking at them from, you know, how much of a risk are they to themselves?
How severe is their addiction?
How severe from a medical standpoint?
perspective, from a psychological perspective, really from a multitude of perspectives.
So I think if someone's talking to me as far as like, hey, you know, I know you're in the addiction medicine space.
What do I do next?
It's really gauging what level of care do they need?
That's something that can be informal, but is also very formalized.
The idea is really identifying, do they need outpatient level of care versus inpatient?
Those are things that were colloquially called rehabs.
We now call inpatient treatment centers.
Do they need to go to a place where they're completely separated and we can mitigate all the risk factors or can they maybe get by on an outpatient basis?
That's case by case.
Many patients, I think, in an ideal world would have access to outpatient interventions.
And then if they didn't do so well or progressed, they would then go inpatient.
