Co-Dependence in Recovery: Balancing Support and Self-Care

Looking out for yourself and not for your partner, not trying to help them get to the realization that they are being detrimental to their own life. Yeah, exactly, and I hate to say it, we all do it. Absolutely, we do yeah, and it's not a good place to be, and it's not serving the relationship.
Ever wondered if being co-dependent is a help or a hindrance in addiction recovery? In this episode of Red Roof Recovery, Tanya McIntyre and Lance dive into the intricate dance of co-dependence. They unpack the good, the bad, and the downright confusing aspects of these relationships. Is leaning on each other always a good thing? Or can it sometimes blur the lines of healthy support?
Tanya and Lance bring their own stories to the table, offering a heartfelt look at how co-dependency can shape recovery journeys. They don’t just talk about the problems; they share practical tips on maintaining mutual respect and effective communication with loved ones who are also navigating addiction. You’ll hear about the importance of self-care for those offering support, and how to have constructive conversations that build, rather than break, these crucial relationships.
Whether you’re in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and real-life advice to help you find balance.
