Episode 190: Bottom is when you stop digging

This is a phrase I picked up from the 12-step community. Basically, it means that there is no absolute limit to suffering, and that each person decides for himself or herself when enough is enough. If you’re in a relationship with an addict, this realization is heartbreaking and infuriating -- but it’s true. On the other hand, if bottom is subjective, then there’s nothing stopping someone from throwing that shovel away today. #recovery #addiction #suffering
