The effects of addiction, whether they show up in every family member...get passed down from generation to generation to generation, those family patterns that unfortunately end up being kind of ripe for addiction to blossom in the family again.
Picture yourself at a family gathering where the unspoken undercurrents of addiction ripple through the room. In this episode of the 217 Recovery Podcast, Corey Winfield sits down with Casey Arrillaga from Addiction & The Family to tackle these very dynamics. Casey opens up about her personal experiences with addiction in her family and sheds light on how these patterns can seep into future generations if left unchecked. The conversation flows naturally, blending heartfelt anecdotes with practical advice.
Corey and Casey emphasize the importance of recognizing harmful family patterns and finding the right kind of support to break free from them. Whether it's through a 12-step program, therapy, or community support, they stress that having a robust support system is crucial for lasting recovery. One particularly engaging part of their chat touches on the role of spirituality and 'flow' experiences in recovery.
These moments of deep engagement and fulfillment can be powerful tools in maintaining sobriety and building a meaningful life. Casey also highlights a critical point: addiction often runs in families, but it doesn't have to be a life sentence. By making conscious choices and seeking the right support, individuals can break the cycle and create a healthier future for themselves and their loved ones.
This episode is a treasure trove of insights for anyone affected by addiction, whether directly or through a loved one. It's not just about understanding the problem but finding actionable steps to move forward. Corey and Casey's discussion is both inspiring and informative, offering a beacon of hope for those navigating the choppy waters of recovery.
