That piece of you that you feel has died, that soulful connection you have with your own needs and your own desires is really all about that. And that is the greatest loss that this disease has taken from anyone who suffers from it.
Addiction doesn't just affect the individual; it ripples through families, leaving behind a trail of emotional turmoil and codependency. In this eye-opening episode of Recovery Soapbox, Jamie and Sally, two mothers of adult addicts, sit down with Kamrin Carver to share their deeply personal stories. They delve into the heart-wrenching struggles of living with an addicted loved one and how these experiences led them to Brighton's free family treatment program.
Jamie and Sally's candid conversations reveal the harsh realities of codependency, a pattern where family members become entangled in the addict's life to the detriment of their own well-being. They discuss how setting boundaries, practicing self-care, and seeking support were pivotal steps in their healing journey. Through their stories, you'll gain a better understanding of how addiction impacts families and the importance of addressing these dynamics for everyone involved.
Sally poignantly shares, 'That piece of you that you feel has died, that soulful connection you have with your own needs and your own desires is really all about that. And that is the greatest loss that this disease has taken from anyone who suffers from it'. This episode isn't just about the struggle; it's about finding hope and rebuilding lives.
Jamie and Sally's journey underscores the importance of personal growth, breaking free from denial, and reclaiming one's sense of self. Whether you're directly affected by addiction or supporting someone who is, their insights offer valuable lessons on resilience and recovery. Tune in to hear how these brave women turned their pain into a path toward healing.
