Searching for moments of joy was one of the things that started to pull me out of my depression when she was active in her addiction.
Picture this: Shar Jones, a mother grappling with the emotional rollercoaster of her daughter's addiction, finds herself recording from a place that's all too familiar. Her daughter, who had been making strides in rehab for 15 months, suddenly walks away, leaving Shar overwhelmed with worry, fear, and guilt. But instead of succumbing to despair, Shar takes us through her personal toolkit for finding moments of joy even in the darkest times.
She shares how she taps into her senses, stays grounded in the present, and celebrates small victories to keep her sanity intact. This episode is a raw and heartfelt exploration of a mother's resilience and the strategies she uses to cope with the unpredictable nature of addiction. Whether you're a parent, a family member, or someone seeking solace in similar struggles, Shar's journey offers a beacon of hope and practical advice.
Tune in for an episode that’s as much about finding strength within yourself as it is about supporting a loved one through their battles.
