Love and Sobriety: The Challenges of Romantic Relationships in Recovery

I wanted someone to love me because I couldn't love myself...Until I was willing to invest some time in myself, heal the things that I needed to heal and move on from it, I wasn't ready to be in a relationship, and that's just the long and short of it in my experience.
Romantic relationships in early sobriety can feel like walking a tightrope. In this episode of '11th Hour Addiction Recovery', hosts Adam R., Patrick M., and C.J. tackle the tricky terrain of love and dating while navigating the path to recovery.
