No matter what I did, they still were there. I honestly don't care if she gets mad, and if she does, I need to look at it. Is it an open wound from the past, or is it something to do with her addiction and she gets more touchy when she's starting to fall back in that spiral?
Have you ever wondered how addicts manage the tricky balance of work and relationships? In this episode of 'Tales from the Jungle', Chelsea Dimitri takes us on a deep dive into these very issues. For many battling addiction, holding down a job is a necessity, but it can also be a minefield. Certain industries, like the restaurant business, can be particularly treacherous with drugs often lurking in the background.
Chelsea highlights how these environments can be major triggers for those in recovery and stresses the importance of choosing work that supports sobriety. But it's not just about work; dating as an addict comes with its own set of complications. Chelsea candidly discusses the messy reality of dating choices and the potential for relapse when involved with another addict. She offers practical advice on setting boundaries and being mindful of how a partner's addiction might influence behavior.
Drawing from her own experiences and those within the recovery community, Chelsea's raw and honest reflections provide valuable insights. She reminds us that while addicts must make their own choices, finding joy and fun in life can be a powerful example for them. Whether you're navigating addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode is packed with real-life wisdom and heartfelt advice.
