"Recovery is about growth... and that growth is uncomfortable."
In this candid episode of Retrieving Sanity, Tanner Keegan Read opens up about his journey through a 'pre-lapse' moment. It's not your typical relapse story – he didn't turn to alcohol or drugs, but found himself reaching for something to alter his state of mind. With honesty and a dash of humour, Tanner reflects on how he almost slipped back into old habits and the importance of addressing it before it spiralled out of control.
He introduces the concept of 'pre-lapse', a term he coined to describe the mental regression that precedes a relapse, shedding light on how recovery is an ongoing process of growth, even when it's uncomfortable. Tanner discusses the significance of Step 10 in his recovery programme, a daily inventory that helps maintain awareness and prevent regression. Through his personal story, Tanner emphasises the need for self-reflection and making amends, sharing how he confronted his resentment towards someone close to him.
His reflections are relatable, drawing parallels between recovery and everyday challenges – like the growing pains we all experience. This episode is not just about Tanner's journey; it's an invitation to reflect on our own paths. Tanner promises future episodes with more engaging content and guest talks, hinting at exciting changes for Retrieving Sanity. So, if you're looking for an honest conversation about the ups and downs of recovery, this episode is worth a listen.
