It’s such a relief we live in a world more welcoming of total abstinence for those of us who can’t handle substances, be they alcohol, sugar or drugs. No one says, “Oh, a little cocaine won’t hurt you!” and I’m glad society is coming to understand you don’t say that about alcohol or sugar to addicts in those areas either. Every inch of support helps!
Thanks so much for the kind words! Totally agree that some very solid progress is being made around support being more normalized. Also a huge fan of IFS ever since I was introduced to it a year or so ago. Such a game changer of a way to look at trauma, and I love how it can be applied to so many areas of my life in a way that tends to just make so much sense.
