Recovery or Recovered? Unpacking the Journey with Miss Meg and Jersey Ed
I think for me that's sort of what was a little bit of the tipping point, too, of when I shifted from recovery or recovering to recovered- was like I'm dealing with stuff that everyone out there who has nothing to do with addiction is also working on too.
Picture this: you're on a journey to sobriety, but the road ahead seems uncertain. In this episode of 'Friends in Recovery', hosts Miss Meg and Jersey Ed tackle a common yet complex topic—what does it mean to be 'recovering' versus 'recovered'? This conversation dives deep into the heart of addiction recovery, exploring how these terms impact individuals differently.
Miss Meg sheds light on why the term 'recovered' can feel like a double-edged sword, suggesting a sense of finality that might not resonate with everyone.

The episode doesn't stop there; it goes further to discuss healing the inner child, taking preventative measures, and the crucial role of community support.
Through candid conversations and genuine insights, the hosts bring to life the multifaceted experiences of those in recovery. Whether you're just starting your journey or have been on the path for years, this episode offers valuable perspectives and encouragement to keep moving forward.
