When we're feeling these waves of grief, it's almost as if we are going to disappear in it. It's so big we feel like we might not survive it.
Grief is an emotion that can hit hard, especially when you're on the path to recovery. In this episode of 'In The Circle', Tommy Rosen tackles the complex relationship between grief and addiction. Melly, a listener, brings up the topic, prompting Tommy to share his wisdom on why it's crucial to fully experience grief instead of pushing it away.
He explains how unprocessed grief can lead to relapse and why allowing yourself to feel these emotions is a vital part of healing. Tommy dives into the differences between sadness and grief, offering practical advice on how to release the stories we attach to our losses.
Whether it's losing a child to addiction, being unable to care for a sick parent, or not being present when a loved one passes away, these narratives can make grief linger longer than it needs to. He emphasizes that while our loved ones' physical forms may change, our connection with them remains. Listeners will gain valuable insights into how grief affects those who have lost loved ones, children, or even pets.
Tommy also discusses the unique challenges of experiencing grief while in recovery and provides guidance on how to navigate these turbulent waters without falling back into old habits. This episode is a must-listen for anyone dealing with loss and looking for ways to process their emotions healthily. Tommy's compassionate approach and deep understanding make this episode both comforting and enlightening. If you're struggling with grief or supporting someone who is, you'll find solace and practical advice here.
