Facing Relapse: Sheri and Matt Salis on the Ongoing Struggles of Recovery

There's still a yo-yo to it, there's still opportunities to follow the breadcrumbs down that path to the pit, as I like to call it, and end up in a bad place again, and that can happen years into sobriety, that there's just lingering, long lasting impacts from an alcoholic relationship.
Ever thought the battle ends once sobriety begins? Think again. In this eye-opening episode of the Untoxicated Podcast, Sheri and Matt Salis return to discuss the lingering challenges they face in extended recovery. Following the overwhelming response to their earlier episode, 'Seven Fourteen Twenty-One: Relapse', they felt it was crucial to dive deeper into the realities that many in recovery continue to grapple with.
Listeners were taken aback by how struggles persist even after initial recovery, and some shared their own experiences of ongoing pain and insecurity. Sheri and Matt don't shy away from addressing these tough topics. Matt talks about his belief that self-esteem is the true opposite of addiction, while Sheri highlights how trust is essential for healing a relationship scarred by alcoholism. Their candid conversation sheds light on the persistent effects of addiction, especially on intimate relationships.
Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting a loved one, this episode offers a raw, honest look at what it takes to rebuild a life and relationship post-addiction. Tune in for a heartfelt discussion that promises to resonate deeply and provide hope for those navigating similar paths.
