Hyperindependence | Soberful Podcast

Are you too independent for your own good?
Hyper-independence is a stress response and protection mechanism that can manifest in various ways, like the inability to open up to others, over-burdening yourself with work commitments, and avoiding social events.
For many of us, the roots of our hyper-independence lie in a lack of proper parenting, which forced us as children to take on responsibilities beyond our age bracket.
When it comes to recovery, hyper-independence makes it difficult to ask for help and admit when we're struggling. When we don't allow ourselves to build connections and receive the help we need, it puts our sobriety at risk.
In this episode, Chip and I are talking about the signs of hyper-independence and what you can do to prioritize your recovery.
