Most people think grief is for when a loved one passes, but huge life changes can also trigger cycles of anger, sadness, despair. And though it may seem odd, it’s possible to grieve your disorder or addiction, even though you might consider that period the worst time of your life.    
In this episode, Deena sheds light on making room for grief so you can continue taking steps on the long road of recovery.  
In this episode, you also hear: 
Focusing on short term goals to combat overwhelm 
In recovery vs. Recovered 
Embracing messages of encouragement 

Must-listen moments:  
[00:04:15] During recovery and especially in early recovery, you're gonna hit peaks and valleys and ups and downs and roller coaster rides all the way through. 
[00:11:37] It takes a special person to be able to recognize you have a problem, get help for it, and then live your life again in a whole new way. 
[00:13:07] You have new messages that you're being told now, once you start hearing them over and over again, those recordings are going to be different from what they ever were before, and you’re going to start to believe them.
