I have a story to tell at some point about my son's recovery from alc/substance use disorder.
But today I'm just gonna tell you what has worked (so far &should continue)
Mindfulness sessions with examine triggers, missteps etc and we adjust course.
AND most astoundedly Mushrooms, yes the magic ones. We started working with them in March. (Every once and a while)
No revelations until 3 weeks ago or so. He has what the call a reboot I guess but he also found spirituality like I did (w/o ๐)

^^ also he's been in psychotherapy for 3 years and he has helped him so much resolving past traumas and anxiety.
This therapy is good for him. Our relationships are better. He says words now he would never say (like please, thank you and sorry)
That started changing early last year I think.
Lots going on with him and LOTS that he has overcome ๐
@CherNohio thank you, Cher ๐ it started getting better exponentially in March because I started applying mindfulness tool so we both could understand the triggers the emotions.
Then we'd mindfully analyze the situation/emotions and transform the neg to positive. (Which is tl;dr)
I also meditated a mantra of Peace, Love, Joy, Gratitude, Comfort, Healing, and Protection every night. On the theory that meditation affect proximity. Still
@ucantstop_me
It changes everything with those practices. Mindfulness affects all aspects of our lives. To be in touch and in tune with that benefits the core of our being and how we interact with other situations and people. Life becomes a whole new experience.
