Greg, a recovering codependent from Pennsylvania, shares his journey with Al-Anon and the insights he's gained since starting his recovery in 1999. He delves into the roots of resentment, explaining how it means to 're-feel' pain repeatedly, and uses a family story to illustrate the destructive nature of holding onto anger.
