Making peace that the one you love is struggling with two different versions of themselves will help you turn anger into compassion.
Ever feel like you're living with two different people? Michelle Anderson knows exactly what that's like. In this episode of 'Love Over Addiction', she dives into the heart-wrenching reality of loving someone who seems to have a split personality. One moment, your partner is the loving, funny person you fell for, and the next, they're distant or even hostile. Michelle calls this the 'Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde' effect of addiction.
She shares those fleeting moments of joy and connection that keep you hanging on, reminding you why you fell in love in the first place. But just as quickly, those moments can vanish, leaving you to deal with the pain and confusion of their darker side. Michelle offers practical advice on how to adjust your expectations and find peace in the chaos. Instead of letting anger consume you, she encourages turning that frustration into compassion.
This episode is a lifeline for anyone feeling worn out from trying to help a loved one who battles addiction. Michelle's approach is filled with empathy and understanding, providing not just hope but also a sprinkle of fun to lighten the heavy load. If you're struggling to keep up with the emotional roller coaster of your partner's addiction, this episode is a must-listen.
