Here's an intriguing question, have you ever felt an unhealthy attachment to a past partner that feels a lot like addiction? In this candid discussion, I share my findings on post-relationship addiction, an issue that has a surprising number of people in its grip. Drawn from my own experiences and the experiences of others, I've developed 10 practical strategies designed to help you break free from this addictive cycle.

I also describe how these strategies can help you with comfort eating recovery.

We take a hard look at how to recognise and understand your addictive responses, shift your perspective to focus on personal needs and self-worth, and foster internal comfort instead of relying on external validation or distractions.

As we move forward, we tackle the difficult path of emotional recovery, rebuilding relationships, and reigniting interest in other activities. This journey requires courage - staying with discomfort, acknowledging that your feelings were real, and facing the fear of being alone. I provide insights into self-soothing and self-regulation techniques, along with a list of non-harmful strategies that can be your go-to when you need some self-comfort.

Whether you're dealing with the end of a relationship or battling food addiction, these insights are designed to assist you on your path towards recovery. So strap in, and let's navigate this challenging terrain together.
