In this episode, we dive into the complexities of cross-addictions, a topic that resonates deeply with anyone in recovery. Tamar and Lane explore their personal struggles and the broader implications of swapping one addictive behavior for another.

Key Points:

• Personal Stories of Cross-Addiction:
• Both hosts share their experiences with substituting alcohol with other compulsive behaviors, such as overeating and excessive shopping.
• Sneakiness of New Addictions:
• Discussing how seemingly innocuous habits, like going to the gym or eating certain foods, can spiral into addictions that mimic the compulsive nature of substance abuse.
• Awareness and Self-Reflection:
• Emphasizing the importance of self-awareness and honesty in recognizing and addressing new addictive behaviors that can impact recovery.
