Resentments in Sobriety – Relapse Fuel? Peace Killer? How to Deal…

Resentment is bitter indignation and a negative reaction to perceived mistreatment. Every time you see something, or hear something, it gets processed through your filter. You’re either going to process it as a personal assault on your pride or ego – or you will have acceptance.

Talking about emotional perception and the role it plays in resentment, Mike & Glenn discuss resentment in addiction and in recovery. What fuels it? How does it start? And more importantly, ways to combat resentments, ways to live so you don’t pile them up – and when they do come, ways to dissect and diffuse them.
