What you really want? What makes all the difference, is to let things get bad, to stop saving them and allow so many natural consequences occur that they finally come to you and say you know what I've got to get help, and then they follow through.
Ever felt like the glue holding everything together in your loved one's battle with addiction? Michelle Anderson knows that feeling all too well. In this heartfelt episode of 'Love Over Addiction', Michelle opens up about her journey from being the fixer to embracing the chaos. She shares how she used to run around, covering up for her ex-husband's addiction, thinking she could control the outcome. But here's the twist: letting everything fall apart was the best thing she ever did.
Michelle's story is a powerful reminder that sometimes, stepping back and allowing natural consequences can lead to real change. She stopped cleaning up the messes, stopped lying for him, and let things unravel. And guess what? It helped. Not just her partner, but herself too. This episode is a must-listen for anyone feeling overwhelmed by a loved one's addiction. Michelle talks about the importance of focusing on your own well-being and happiness, rather than trying to manage someone else's sobriety.
She offers practical advice and a compassionate perspective, making it clear that you don't have to go through this alone. If you're ready to stop being the fixer and start taking care of yourself, tune in. Michelle's journey will inspire you to find strength in letting go and discovering hope amidst the chaos.
