The Cure for Chronic Pain with Nicole Sachs, LCSW

S1 Ep135: EPISODE 13 - Our Addiction to Control


Listen Later

I have been in the grips of physical and mental "control addiction" for a lifetime. Well, for most of a lifetime. Through loving, patient, and consistent work on myself, I have been able to let it go to a large extent. Control begins as a kind defense mechanism allowing us to perceive "fake safety" as a way to get through life. But when we become aware of the fact that it's hurting us more than it's helping us, we are at a crossroads. Today we discuss this very normal way of "handling" life, what to do when it's not working anymore, and why awareness of these patterns is key to growth and change. Join us! XO n.
