Description

When you love someone suffering from addiction to alcohol, drugs, sex, pornography, gambling, or whatever else they may choose, we get angry. Their addiction starts to overtake their lives and relationships, right? Of course we get angry. So this week we’re talking specifically about how to let it go.  Here’s the thing: if we don’t find ways to let that anger go, it can build and become toxic to us.  It can start to cause resentment and bitterness. It can start to seep into other parts of our lives that just don’t deserve to have anger there. Has that ever happened to you? I know it did for me. And there’s no judgment.  It’s just part of our lives because we love someone suffering from addiction.  So today I’m here with one quick tip on how to let go of some of this anger. A little strategy and technique that you can use throughout your day.  Start with the small situations, and work your way up as you get more and more comfortable with this little tip.  You ready? I know you can do it! We’re here for you, we’re in your corner, and this is your time, sister.  Find more here: https://loveoveraddiction.com/how-to-let-go-of-anger-when-you-love-an-alcoholic-or-substance-abuser/ Join the community: https://loveoveraddiction.com/ Connect personally: https://www.instagram.com/love_over_addiction/
