On this episode of Clean and Sober Radio, host Gary Hendler and cohost Mark Sigmund tackled a question many struggle with: “Am I really an addict, or just someone who overdoes it?” They explored the common rationalizations—“I’m just having fun,” “I can stop anytime,” “I’m not as bad as them”—that often delay the hard truths. The conversation focused on recognizing the signs of addiction, the damage denial can cause, and the moment of clarity that can lead to real change. It was a powerful and honest discussion about facing the truth and taking the first step toward recovery.
