Co-Dependence in Recovery: Balancing Support and Self-Care
“Looking out for yourself and not for your partner, not trying to help them get to the realization that they are being detrimental to their own life. Yeah, exactly, and I hate to say it, we all do it. Absolutely, we do yeah, and it's not a good place to be, and it's not serving the relationship.”
Ever wondered if being co-dependent is a help or a hindrance in addiction recovery? In this episode of Red Roof Recovery, Tanya McIntyre and Lance dive into the intricate dance of co-dependence.
