‘Boundaries’ is a loaded term. We like to talk about 1. Coming from a place of love first (for ourselves and others), 2. Finding the edges where we get pushed beyond our limits based (self not other focused), 3. Setting those limits, communicating them positively, and creating contingencies for how to react.
⠀⠀
It’s not rocket science, but a little self analysis and prior planning puts us in the best position to thrive.

Relatable much?

The more we listen and try to understand and empathise with a loved one’s experience of addiction, the more we can help break its ties ⠀⠀ #familyrecovery #iamstronger #recoveryispossible #ilovesomeonebattlingaddiction #oppositeofaddictionisconnection #iamnotanonymous #breakthesilence #youarenotalone #loveoveraddiction #mentalhealthawareness #hope #love #addiction #addictionawareness #wethevillage #stoptheshame #recovery #riseupagainstaddiction #whenyouloveanaddict #thinkdifferentaboutaddiction #marriedtoanaddict #addictsmom #addictsdad #familyofanaddict #wifeofanaddict #spouseofanaddict #afterrehab #addictionreality #addictionhelp
As a society we’ve inherited a way of thinking about people who struggle with addiction or are in recovery. BUT it’s time to change that narrative because if it’s not helping it’s hurting. If you’re loved one doesn’t want to ‘admit’ they are an ‘addict’. That’s cool.
⠀⠀
Our helping them does not require they ‘admit’ anything. So we can start right now. #CRAFT
And you know what...this also goes for us, the support crew. We need not take on labels like enabler or codependent. Because if they don’t first seek to understand the insanity of pretending everything’s ok with someone we love when it’s not, or detaching when all they need is love then we need not take on their labels because they lack the information or empathy to understand.

Hurt people hurt people. But HEALED people heal people.
⠀⠀
Our experiences to unconditionally love someone through the chaos of addiction make us prime candidates for healing ourselves and others. Never forget how much pain it took to be this gentle
