Mike Smith's Battle with Anger: A Journey of Healing and Growth

I'm the only thing I'm in control of myself and I'm learning that lesson the hard way.
Mike Smith opens up about his lifelong struggle with anger and how it has affected his relationships in this heartfelt episode. Despite being in recovery, Mike admits that his addiction to control and codependency has often fueled his anger, leading to pain for himself and those he loves.
He shares candidly about the moments when his temper has gotten the better of him, especially within the context of Al-Anon, and how these outbursts have been a significant hurdle in his recovery journey. But this isn't just a tale of struggle—it's also one of hope and transformation. Mike talks about the steps he's taking to compartmentalize his negative emotions and channel them into positive actions.
He highlights the importance of seeking help and support, emphasizing that true recovery involves focusing on self-control rather than trying to control others. Through personal anecdotes and practical advice, Mike offers listeners a glimpse into the ongoing process of healing and growth. If you or someone you know is grappling with anger and resentment, this episode provides valuable insights and encouragement to keep moving forward.
