Healing Broken Bonds: Trust in Addiction Recovery

Forgiveness just means you're no longer demanding payment for what was done, because otherwise you keep trying to collect on something, and that causes a lot of problems in a relationship.
Trust can be one of the hardest things to rebuild after addiction has taken its toll on relationships. In this episode of The Support Recovery Podcast, hosts Michael and Skyler sit down with Mark McDonald to tackle this very issue. Mark dives deep into the nitty-gritty of how trust can be mended and relationships restored during the recovery journey. He emphasizes the crucial roles of honesty, transparency, and modeling healthy behavior.
But it’s not all sunshine and rainbows; Mark also shares the tough realities of setting boundaries and the ongoing effort needed to maintain trust. One standout moment in this episode is when Mark talks about the transformative power of forgiveness. He explains how letting go of past hurts can pave the way for rebuilding trust. If you're in the early stages of this process, Mark’s advice on communication and understanding will be invaluable.
He offers practical tips for those just starting out, stressing that rebuilding trust is a continuous effort, not a one-time fix. This episode is a treasure trove of insights for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is. It’s packed with real-life advice that can make a tangible difference in your recovery journey. So, if you’re looking for guidance on how to mend broken bonds and build a healthier future, this episode is definitely worth your time.
