Family Ties and Addiction: The Hard Truths of Recovery

We literally train them, like our addiction made us train our families not to trust us, always to be on guard with everything we're doing...
What happens when your addiction doesn't just affect you but ripples through your entire family? In this episode of 'Not So Anonymous', hosts Jordan and Donny dive into the often painful reality of how addiction impacts families. With anecdotes that range from the humorous (think cargo shorts and dress shoes) to the heart-wrenching, they lay bare the emotional toll addiction takes on loved ones.
Through their candid discussion, they explore the difficulty of loving someone in the throes of addiction and the uphill battle of rebuilding trust once sobriety is sought. One poignant moment captures it all: 'We literally train them, like our addiction made us train our families not to trust us, always to be on guard with everything we're doing'. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the ripple effects of addiction and the arduous journey toward healing relationships.
Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or just seeking insight, you'll find both solace and wisdom here.
