Description

One way that you may be coping with the high stress situation of loving someone with an addiction is food.  Let's face it we are exhausted, overwhelmed and under chronic stress. We are looking for ways to cope, even if we do not know it.  This is not abnormal and it is nothing to be ashamed of. If you feel concerned or would like a shift for your emotional or stress eating.  Try checking in with yourself and trying to determine what you need. Have you given yourself enough food throughout the day?  Reach in your tool box and try something else before you reach for that food.   Book a one one session with me  [https://calendly.com/taraglittle77/60min?month=2026-06] Let's connect: mailto:taraglittle@gmail.com [taraglittle@gmail.com]   Join the Facebook community [https://www.facebook.com/groups/4289149064641831]

24/ Why Setting Boundaries With An Addict Can Feel So Guilty (And Why That Doesn't Mean You're Wrong)

If you love someone struggling with an addiction, setting boundaries can feel incredibly uncomfortable and stressful. You may know deep down that you need to protect your peace, stop overwhelming yourself, or step out of the constant cycle of rescuing... but the moment you do , guilt shows up.    Why?    In this episode, we're talking about why guilt often follows boundary setting- especially when you've spent so much time prioritizing someone else's needs over your own.   You'll learn why feeling guilty does not automatically mean you're doing something wrong.   Boundaries are a form of self care. You are worth prioritizing your health, wellness,  emotional wellbeing and your peace!   Get extra support here!
