Obsessed and Unraveled: Tara Boyce on Love and Mental Health

Life became very, very small, but that was okay. It certainly wasn't sex addiction, as I was still a virgin. And all it was important, they believed the charade that it was my depression that had made me unfit to continue my studies.
Imagine being caught in a whirlwind of emotions, where love feels more like an obsession and mental health spirals out of control. That's exactly what Tara Boyce dives into in this episode of 'Addicted to Recovery: The Interactive Memoir'. Tara gets real about how her mental health took a nosedive as she became fixated on someone who couldn't care less. It's a raw look at how romantic obsession can act like a drug, clouding judgment and feeding into addiction.
She shares her unique perspective on how her struggles with intimacy and relationships were intertwined with her battle against substance abuse. Tara doesn’t just stop at sharing her past; she’s all about solutions too. She emphasizes the importance of addressing mental health alongside addiction, stressing that one can't be tackled without the other. Through candid storytelling, she aims to break down the stigma surrounding these issues and promote a strengths-based approach to recovery.
If you're looking for an honest conversation about the messy overlap of love, addiction, and mental health, this episode is a must-listen. Tara's journey will leave you thinking about the power of self-discovery and the potential for thriving, not just surviving.
