Alcohol Kept Casey in a Codependent Relationship
Casey, a proud Aboriginal woman, used alcohol to mask her ADHD and autism, hiding her creative and quirky side for years. In this episode, she opens up about how alcohol became the foundation of her long-term, codependent relationship, which began to fall apart after a traumatic assault.
She also shares a mind-blowing rule she set for herself around drinking last year, could you stick to it? Now fully sober, Casey is navigating the world of dating and friendships as a non-drinker.
