Recognizing Relapse: Early Warning Signs and Prevention Strategies

Essentially, the things that signal a coming relapse are not doing. That inaction goes hand in hand with not having a regular schedule of meetings.
What happens when the road to recovery takes a sudden turn? In this episode of 'Busting Addiction and Its Myths', host Bruno J tackles the often-overlooked signs that signal a potential relapse. Addicts might not see or admit these signs, but they're there, lurking beneath the surface. One of the biggest red flags is denial—what Bruno calls 'Don’t Even Notice I Am Lying'. It's a state where the addict deflects blame, minimizes issues, and avoids the truth at all costs.
Not having a sponsor or skipping regular 12-step meetings are also telltale signs that something's amiss. But it's not all doom and gloom. Bruno shares practical tips for staying on track, like maintaining a fitness routine, eating well, and keeping open lines of communication with supportive people. Family support plays a crucial role in recovery, and the episode explores how loved ones can help without enabling.
There's also a look at alternative recovery methods and how technology can be a game-changer in staying sober. Whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights to help prevent relapse and maintain a healthy, sober life.
