Show Notes:

Welcome to The Recovered Podcast, where we explore the raw and unfiltered realities of recovery. Today, we delve into a topic that many find challenging: the danger of expectations. In recovery, we often come in with a preconceived notion of how our journey should unfold. We may expect immediate relief from our struggles, a linear path to healing, or even a complete transformation of our lives. However, these expectations can set us up for disappointment, frustration, and even relapse.

Tonight, we talk about Expectations.

Show Notes:

Blame can be a destructive force in recovery, hindering personal growth and preventing individuals from taking responsibility for their actions. When individuals blame others for their problems, they avoid confronting their shortcomings and fail to address the root causes of their addiction. This can lead to a cycle of resentment, anger, and self-pity, which can ultimately trigger relapse.

Tonight, we talk about Blame.
