Death is the ultimate loss and many of us in recovery can struggle with complicated grief when an addicted loved one dies.
How do you cope with the ultimate loss while on the path to recovery?

Jillian recounts the sorrow of losing her brother, while Dominick shares the pain of saying goodbye to his parents. The episode dives into the complexities of grieving for loved ones who struggled with addiction, a process often tangled with feelings of guilt and anger.
Jillian and Dominick discuss the necessity of setting boundaries with addicted family members, even when those boundaries might feel like walls. They touch on the peace that comes with knowing a loved one is no longer suffering, even as they grapple with their own heartache. The conversation also explores how grief can trigger anxiety and offers practical coping mechanisms like reading affirmations and connecting with others in recovery.
If you've ever struggled with complicated grief, this episode provides a comforting blend of empathy, shared experiences, and actionable advice.
