Relationship Stupid: Why Do People Keep Hurting the Ones They Love? | TLO Podcast

Send us Fan MailShe’s coming off surgery, still recovering, and we’re somehow sitting here celebrating two massive milestones: quitting smoking and finishing Suboxone after years of medication-assisted treatment. We get real about what it feels like when the craving isn’t just a craving, it’s a routine tied to coffee, food, stress, and even intimacy. The biggest surprise is how much progress can come down to a clear mental switch, plus the right support system behind it.We also walk back to the beginning of opioid addiction: nerve pain, early prescriptions, and the moment pills stop being “medicine” and start feeling like confidence, relief, and escape. From there it’s the part people don’t talk about enough, the fear of withdrawal and the daily scramble to avoid getting sick. We talk about functioning addiction, doctor shopping in the early 2000s, and why recovery is more than just quitting a substance. Trauma, mental health, shame, dissociation, and self-sabotage all connect, whether you want them to or not.Then we zoom out to the opioid crisis and the aftermath: pill mills, patients getting cut off, and the way ER visits can feel like a courtroom if you have a history of Suboxone. We share what helped us: accountability, counseling, honest conversations, and finding clinics that actually care. If you need help right now, we point you toward options, including ECMC in Buffalo, and we share ways to reach us for direction.Subscribe, share this with someone who needs it, and leave a review so more people can find support when it matters most.Support the show
