Forgiving Yourself: Steps to Healing and Recovery

I've forgiven myself, but there's a big difference between the mind and the heart- right logic feeling.
Why is it often easier to forgive others than to forgive ourselves? In this episode of 'Better Life in Recovery', David Stoecker tackles this tough question head-on. Drawing from his own journey and those of others in the recovery community, David delves into the heart of self-forgiveness. He shares how changing our self-perception and letting go of past mistakes can be transformative.
Through candid discussions, he highlights the power of seeing ourselves with compassion and understanding that we did the best we could with what we had at the time. David also addresses the impact of childhood trauma on addiction and the complexities of prescribing medications like amphetamines for ADHD without considering underlying trauma. With practical tips and heartfelt advice, this episode offers a roadmap for those struggling to forgive themselves.
It’s a reminder that while self-forgiveness can be challenging, it's a crucial step towards healing and personal growth. Tune in for an honest, hopeful conversation that encourages listeners to embrace their journey with resilience and hope.
