New Show Teaches How to Build Healthy Relationships with an Addict in Recovery
In this episode of Recovery ReLOVution, listeners will learn to re-think communicating with the addict in their lives … without shame. Using shame to motivate your loved one isn’t helping. We need to take a different approach.
(firmenpresse) - In this episode of Recovery ReLOVution, Dr. Gala Gorman, the shows host, shows listeners how to communicate shamelessly with addicted loved ones. Using shame to motivate addicts wont work. In fact, it will probably backfire, fueling addiction.
As Gorman explains, If you use shame to try to motivate your loved one to make a change, its going to backfire. Are you wondering if you are shaming the addict? Theres a good chances you are. Its difficult not to when faced with the crazy thoughtless behavior that accompanies addiction. Still it isnt helping. Most of us grew up believing that shame would motivate someone to change. Unfortunately, it doesnt work that way. In fact, it just fuels addiction just the thing youre hoping to stop. We need to take a different approach.
In this episode, listeners will:
- Communicate shamelessly with addicted loved ones
- Motivate the addict the RIGHT way
- Learn what to do when angry or disappointed
When living with an addict or in a close relationship with an addict, it is nearly impossible to avoid shaming them. It is really common to use shaming language when dealing with the addict. Because, honestly, their behavior is shameful. But, what happens is the shame actually just confirms what the addict is already telling themselves that theyre no good. Theyre a loser. They deserve everything that theyre getting.
As Gorman says, its important to take care of oneself first, which is really hard for recovery stakeholders because codependence sort of goes hand-in-hand with being a stakeholder. Its important not to accept being bullied from the addict. And, not bullying the addict even if it is in return for being bullied. Rather, its important to know what is and what isnt okay. And, its different for everyone.
The Recovery ReLOVution show was created with the aim in mind to help family and friends of addicts restore peace and sanity to their world. Listeners now have an alternative to doing the same thing expecting a different result the definition of insanity.
The show urges listeners to stretch themselves. The shows tagline reflects this. Love the Addict. Outsmart the Addiction. Listeners, primarily Recovery Stakeholders, will likely find a particular interest since its difficult to avoid shaming their addict loved one.
When asked why she created the show, Gorman said, Shaming just adds fuel to addictions fire. There is an alternative.
The shows host, Dr. Gala Gorman, is a holistic life coach and minister. She is the author of the Spiritual ApproachTM Series of books focused on practical spirituality. As an entrepreneur mediator, publisher and, formerly, accounting firm partner, her experiences helped shape the creation of the show. As a change facilitator, she ignites transformation in businesses, families, students, clients and, especially, within herself.
Gorman has hopes that the show will help Recovery Stakeholders learn to set and hold effective boundaries to ignite positive change in themselves and their loved one who is struggling with addiction.
