There's a term that I've started using for that which I call cascading recovery, when the recovery of one family member leads to the recovery of another family member and perhaps other family members after that follow suit.
What happens when one partner goes to treatment, and both find recovery? Jay and Mirah's story answers this question with honesty and heart. When Jay sought help for her addiction, her wife Mirah attended a family program and discovered she had her own issues to tackle. This realization led them both on a shared journey of early sobriety, navigating the highs and lows together.
In this episode of 'Addiction and the Family', Jay and Mirah candidly discuss their experiences, shedding light on the complexities of maintaining a relationship while both partners are in recovery. They talk about the importance of self-reflection, addressing personal issues, and the role of family dynamics in their healing process. The episode also features 'person on the street' interviews, adding diverse perspectives on relationships in early recovery.
Hosts Kira and Casey Arrillaga offer their own reflections, drawing from their years of experience in recovery. Jay and Mirah's journey underscores the idea of cascading recovery, where one person's healing can inspire another's. Their story is a testament to the power of support, honesty, and continuous personal growth. If you're looking for practical insights and a dose of realistic hope for your family's recovery journey, this episode is a must-listen.
