It really isn't a healthy thing and, like you said, it's not fair to the other people that are in the group, because it changes the dynamics of it.
Ever wondered how to make relationships work while you're on the path to recovery? Lea and Jim dive into this tricky subject in an engaging episode of 'Recovery Talks'.

Lea and Jim share their thoughts and experiences, making it clear that focusing on yourself first is crucial.
They stress the importance of building self-worth and understanding who you are before inviting someone else into your life. The episode also sheds light on the challenges of dating in recovery. From screening potential partners to deciding when and how to disclose your recovery status, Lea and Jim offer practical tips. They highlight the significance of effective communication and setting boundaries to maintain healthy relationships.
Peer support and resources, such as those provided by Montana's Peer Network, are also discussed as vital tools for anyone navigating this journey. By the end of the episode, you'll gain valuable insights into balancing love and recovery, with a strong emphasis on self-care and personal growth.
