Her co-dependency was so profound she stopped taking care of herself, focusing all her energy on the illusion- the myth, that she could help her husband stop his drinking.
What happens when the line between love and self-sacrifice blurs beyond recognition? In this gripping episode of 'Busting Addiction and Its Myths', we dive into the poignant story of Cary, a woman whose life was turned upside down by her husband's alcoholism. Cary believed she could control the uncontrollable, pouring every ounce of herself into trying to save her husband from his addiction. But in doing so, she lost sight of her own needs and well-being.
This episode unpacks the harsh realities of co-dependency, a condition that often goes unnoticed until it's too late. Cary's tale serves as a powerful reminder that while supporting a loved one is important, neglecting your own health can have devastating consequences. Through her story, listeners are prompted to reflect on their own boundaries and the importance of seeking help—not just for the addict, but for themselves too.
With insights from experts and real-life experiences, this episode sheds light on the myths surrounding addiction and co-dependency, offering a lifeline to those who may find themselves in similar situations. Tune in for a heartfelt discussion that underscores the critical need for self-care and support from groups like Al-Anon.
