The trust, you know - something that we learn in group all the time - is: you know when they're ready to get clean.
Trust is a fragile thing, especially when addiction enters the picture. In this episode of the Boy Problems Podcast, hosts Katie, Jessica, and Shannon tackle the complex topic of trust in relationships with addicts. Each host brings a unique perspective, sharing their personal journeys and the lessons they've learned along the way.
From the initial betrayals and broken promises to the slow rebuilding of trust, they offer a raw and honest look at how trust can evolve—or crumble—throughout addiction and recovery. The episode covers a range of crucial topics: the impact of money on trust, the heartbreak of relapse, and the importance of setting boundaries.
The hosts don't shy away from the tough conversations, discussing how lies and deceit can erode trust and how hard it can be to rebuild once it's been shattered. They also touch on the frustration of addicts in early recovery who want to regain trust quickly, often before they've truly earned it.
One memorable moment from the episode is when one of the hosts shares a poignant insight: 'The trust, you know - something that we learn in group all the time - is: you know when they're ready to get clean'. This quote encapsulates the delicate balance of hope and skepticism that many partners of addicts experience. Beyond personal stories, the episode offers valuable resources for those navigating similar struggles.
Whether you're dealing with addiction in your family or supporting someone who is, you'll find practical advice and a sense of community here. From Co-Dependents Anonymous to Al-Anon and Nar-Anon, the hosts provide a wealth of resources to help you on your journey. If you're looking for a podcast that combines heartfelt storytelling with practical advice, this episode of Boy Problems Podcast is a must-listen. It's an honest, empathetic exploration of trust in the shadow of addiction.
