Kelly's Path: Overcoming Family Addiction and Finding Recovery
I need to be in a room full of people who understand...the behavior of growing up and just the falseness and the codependency and the boundaries and all of the psychobabble. It's valid and I don't think anybody couldn't use it absolutely.
Imagine growing up in a household where addiction is the norm. Kelly's story is a poignant look into such a life. Raised by parents who were functional alcoholics, Kelly was often left in the care of her three drug-addicted brothers. One of her brothers, high on LSD, would babysit her, creating an unstable and unsafe environment.
This chaotic upbringing led Kelly down her own path of substance abuse, as she sought to cope with the neglect and lack of support from her family. Despite these challenges, Kelly found her way to recovery through Al-Anon and Debtors Anonymous. These support groups provided her with the tools and community she needed to prioritize self-care and break free from the cycle of addiction.
Kelly's journey is a testament to the power of seeking help and the importance of community in overcoming personal struggles. Tune in to hear her full story and be inspired by her resilience and determination.
