Letting go for me is the absolute hardest thing to do. I was so lonely, I couldn't sit with myself, I needed to have someone to distract me from everything that was going on, and that's great for the moment. But whenever everything comes to a head and you're kind of like, wow, what do I do now?
Valerie Ricchuito, the voice behind 'Valorious', is back with another gripping episode that dives deep into the tangled web of addiction and relationships. In 'Men, Women, Nightmares', Valerie opens up about the murky waters of 13th stepping, the ghosts of old relationships, and the journey towards self-love. She doesn't shy away from sharing how she once used relationships as a crutch to avoid facing the pain of her addiction.
The real challenge, she reveals, has been learning to let go and stand on her own two feet. Valerie also bravely discusses her experiences with an abusive relationship, shedding light on the impact it had on her mental health and recovery. She touches on codependency, the struggles of singlehood, and the importance of finding community support and treatment.
With her signature dark humor and unfiltered honesty, Valerie reminds us that feeling lonely is part of the human experience, but it shouldn't define us. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of the complexities of love and loneliness in the journey to sobriety. Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, Valerie's story offers a raw and relatable perspective that might just provide the inspiration you need.
