One of the reasons we feel resentful is because we feel helpless, and that's a lie. Addiction wants you to believe: don't fall for it. You're a smart woman, you're not powerless, and this last step to letting go of resentment is to feel the exact opposite. So what's the opposite of resentment? It's compassion.
Feeling stuck in a cycle of anger and frustration while loving someone who struggles with addiction? Michelle Anderson gets it. In this episode of 'Love Over Addiction', she opens up about her own journey from resentment to compassion. Drawing from her personal experiences, Michelle shares how she learned to let go of negative emotions that clouded her relationships. She talks about the importance of aligning your expectations with reality and not taking on the responsibility of your loved one's recovery.
It's about focusing on your own growth and self-care, rather than trying to fix someone else. Michelle encourages listeners to walk through the painful realities of addiction, accept what their partners can and cannot offer, and find support from other sources. She emphasizes that you are not powerless; compassion and understanding can replace resentment. This episode is packed with practical advice and emotional support for anyone navigating the difficult path of loving someone with addiction.
