Weak boundaries when a loved one is addicted, mean you will likely be lied to, cheated on, and stolen from. When you set boundaries with an addicted loved one, you increase the chances that he or she will get help.
How do you protect your sanity when a loved one is struggling with addiction? In this episode of 'Take 12 Recovery Radio', Monty Dale Meyer, known as the Monty'man, tackles the tough topic of setting boundaries with addicted loved ones. Addiction can wreak havoc on families, leading to hurtful behaviors like lying, cheating, and stealing. Monty emphasizes that while you can't control your loved one's actions, you can control your responses.
Setting firm boundaries is essential for maintaining your own well-being and can even encourage your loved one to seek help. But how do you set these boundaries effectively? Monty shares practical advice and real-life stories to guide you through this challenging process. He also discusses the role of forgiveness—not as a way to tolerate abuse, but as a step towards healing.
The episode wraps up with an uplifting song by Jim Crain, reminding us of the power of positive music in recovery. Tune in for insights and support that could make a real difference in your life and the lives of those you care about.
