I am so proud of you for recognizing that first, that you know what the addiction is easy to see, because we see those behaviors, we see the drug use, we see the manipulation, we see the loss of money, but what we don't see is the mental illness, and so it's easy to pin it all on that.
Imagine trying to keep friendships afloat while battling addiction. It’s a tough balancing act, right? In this episode of the Addict II Athlete Podcast, Coach Blu dives into the emotional labyrinth of maintaining friendships during addiction. He sheds light on when it might be time to let go of certain relationships and how to handle the tricky feelings of trust and mistrust that often come with addiction.
One of his standout points is the importance of recognizing mental illness as a significant part of addiction, not just the visible behaviors like drug use or manipulation. This episode isn't just about friendships; it’s a comprehensive look at recovery. Coach Blu also discusses Medicated Assisted Therapy, mental health challenges, and dual diagnosis. His empathetic approach emphasizes community support and the role of becoming a sober coach.
If you're looking for practical advice wrapped in genuine empathy, this episode is a must-listen.
