thank you both for the welcome.
soberlicious, up until today I have been stuck in the standard/recovery movement in regards to my boyfriend.
I just started reading today about this approach. It is odd that when it comes to myself i used and was somewhat successful with the AVRT approach, but when it comes to my loved ones I was focusing on group recovery methods and the promise of relapse. I don't know why I didn't try to instill the same approach for loved ones.
I would love to hear any experiences you might have for me to reference.
thanks.
