Therapies help us with thought processes. For instance, we can look at guilt as being helpful- a feeling of psychological discomfort about something we've done that is objectively wrong.
Guilt and shame can feel like heavy chains dragging you down, especially when you're dealing with addiction and mental health issues. In this episode of the 'Red Roof Recovery Show', hosts Tanya Mcintyre and Lance tackle these challenging emotions head-on. They dive into why we often feel guilty about our struggles and how shame can make us feel unworthy, especially in the eyes of our loved ones. But it’s not all doom and gloom.
Tanya and Lance bring a refreshing perspective by sharing practical ways to shift these unhelpful beliefs using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Tanya, with her own journey through addiction recovery, emphasizes the power of turning rational analysis inward. Instead of seeking solutions outside, she encourages listeners to scrutinize their negative self-judgments. Lance adds another layer by stressing the importance of consistent effort and self-help as key predictors of success in recovery.
The duo doesn’t just talk theory; they share relatable anecdotes and actionable tips that you can start using right away. By the end of the episode, you'll find yourself armed with new tools to break free from the chains of guilt and shame, making this a must-listen for anyone on the path to recovery.
