In this short spoken piece, Dallas Bragg reflects on how a victim mindset can become an addiction parallel to meth use, permeating all areas of life.

Bragg then promises to share four practical guideposts designed to help listeners identify, observe, and dismantle this mindset, thereby stepping into personal agency and creating their own experience.

The victim mindset can grip us not just in our relationship with meth, but in every aspect of our lives. And this isn't about shame, and it isn't about judgment. It's about observing. It's about recognizing a pattern that's keeping us from living our highest life. When I was deep in my addiction, I blamed everything and everyone else. My childhood trauma, the stress of being gay in this world, how the gay culture left me out, The pressures of work, the rejection I'd faced. What I didn't realize was that this victim mentality was as addictive as the crystal itself and really just as destructive. So today I want to share 4 guideposts for breaking free from victimhood and stepping into our power as creators of our own experience.
