Breaking Free from Codependency and Denial in Addiction Recovery

Sometimes you play people for where you're at, with your level of just coming clean.
Ever wondered if your support for a loved one struggling with addiction is actually holding them back? In this episode of 'Coming Up for Air', hosts Laurie McDougall and Annie Highwater tackle the tough topics of codependency and denial. Drawing from their own experiences, they shed light on how these patterns can sneak into relationships and become barriers to true recovery.
Laurie and Annie break down what it means to be codependent, highlighting the signs you might be missing and offering practical steps to reclaim your own well-being. They also dive into the murky waters of denial, a common defense mechanism that can prevent us from seeing the reality of addiction. Whether you're a parent, spouse, or friend, this episode is packed with relatable stories and actionable advice to help you support your loved one without losing yourself in the process.
Tune in for a heartfelt discussion that balances empathy with tough love, and start your journey towards healthier relationships and personal healing.
