This is such a fun and important episode, y’all! I sit down with Joe Kulman and Dr. Neva "Dr. C" Chauppette from Party Wise to explore the slippery slope of "weekend warriors" in the MSM (men who have sex with men) community.
We talk about the gradual progression from recreational meth use to full-blown addiction. The experts unpack how seemingly controlled weekend partying can subtly take over your life – starting with Monday recovery days, Thursday anticipation, and eventually bleeding into your entire existence.
Dr. C brings her 30+ years of psychological expertise working with addiction, mental health, and HIV patients, offering compassionate insights on the connection between internalized shame, trauma, and substance use in the LGBTQ+ community. Joe shares his valuable perspective from managing substance use programs at APLA Health in Los Angeles.
The episode provides essential information on:
• Recognizing when recreational use becomes problematic
• Understanding the cycle of anticipation, use, and shame
• Practical harm reduction strategies for those not ready for abstinence
• The impact of societal shame and trauma on substance use patterns
• Resources for support no matter where you are in your journey
Whether you identify as a weekend warrior yourself or know someone who might be slipping deeper into chemsex patterns, this episode offers judgment-free guidance and a powerful reminder: there are people who understand and will meet you exactly where you are with respect and dignity.
