Episode Synopsis
A Year On — Addiction, Recovery, and Telling the TruthIn this episode, I speak honestly about what’s happened in the year since I first launched this podcast. What began as a space for sharing stories from the past has become a place where I’m now telling the truth about the present.I talk about what it’s like to live alongside addiction, not just as someone in recovery, but as someone who loves a person still struggling and suffering. I share how I’ve found my way back to meetings, what it means to hold boundaries, and why silence wasn’t saving me.This episode is about staying honest, even when things are hard. It’s about recovery, not just from addiction, but from self-abandonment, confusion, and fear.If you’re navigating a relationship with someone in active addiction, or you’re seeking support for yourself, these resources may help:🔗 Al-Anon Family Groups (UK): https://al-anonuk.org.uk🔗 Al-Anon (Worldwide): https://al-anon.org🔗 Cocaine Anonymous UK: https://www.cauk.org.uk🔗 Cocaine Anonymous Worldwide: https://ca.orgYou’re not alone.
