Have you ever heard the word intrigue and wondered what it was or why it's such a big deal? It's in the same as flirting? In this episode, I break down what is romantic intrigue, how it is an issue for addicts especially and anyone else who uses it habitually, how alternative actions one can do and use.
Our negative thinking often time gets in the way of us making healthy decisions for ourselves. Based in self protection, sometimes these dysfunctional thinking patterns (cognitive distortions) may color our perspective and make it hard to create new habits. In this episode, I review these distortions for listeners as either a refresher or new information and some skills you can begin to try to break the habit.
In this episode, I talk about the pain of withdrawal, why it happens, and symptoms to expect. Afterwards, i give you 5 tools you can put in place TODAY to start working through this. I also shared how I put all this and more in my "12 Day Withdrawal Survival Guide" that I want you to have and use.
In this episode, I talk about the definition of intimacy disorders and how you would know you have a problem connecting with others. I spend a lot of time talking about the experience of love addiction, love avoidance, and how people can begin to take steps to break the cycle!
