Remember, you made this decision for a reason. While this person does have some good parts to them, and while you may love them, their actions were enough to put your recovery and your mental health on the line, and that's not okay.
Ever felt like certain relationships are more of a burden than a blessing? In this eye-opening episode of 'Forest Fires', John Clark dives into the messy world of toxic relationships and their impact on recovery. While relationships can offer support and love, some can be downright harmful, especially for those trying to stay sober. John breaks down the traits of these toxic connections, from enabling behaviors to the guilt and drama that often come with them.
It's a tough pill to swallow, but sometimes the best thing you can do for your recovery is to set boundaries and, yes, even let go of some people. But don't worry, John doesn't leave you hanging. He shares practical advice on how to build a strong support system, seek help, and embrace forgiveness to find your peace. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to protect their sobriety and move towards a happier, healthier life.
