Perhaps this explains why we call alcoholism a family disease. This disease has caused every aspect of family life to become dysfunctional, at first in subtle ways, and since the disease is progressive, it always, always, without exception- gets worse.
Ever felt like you're trapped in a never-ending cycle of trying to 'fix' a loved one struggling with addiction? This episode of 'Busting Addiction and Its Myths' titled 'You're The Addict Not Me!' dives deep into the complex web of addiction and codependency within families. Hosted by Bruno J, this episode offers a compassionate look at how addiction can twist family dynamics, making it hard to see where the addict's issues end and your own begin.
Bruno J doesn't just talk about the problem; he provides practical advice for breaking free from these toxic patterns. He stresses the importance of personal accountability in recovery, whether you're attending AA, Al-Anon, or another 12-step program. You'll hear about the subtle yet insidious ways addiction can affect every aspect of family life, turning love and care into control and manipulation. The episode also touches on the after-effects of living in such dysfunctional environments, like developing unhealthy codependent behaviors.
Bruno J highlights resources like Melody Beattie's 'Codependent No More' and emphasizes the need for professional help to guide you through this challenging journey. By the end of this episode, you'll have a clearer understanding of how to reclaim your life and start the healing process. So if you're ready to break the chains of addiction and codependency, this episode is a must-listen.
