With addiction, it’s not just what’s happening.
It’s what you think might happen.
The shift in his mood.
The tone in his voice.
The feeling in the room.
You notice it all.
Before it happens.
While it’s happening.
After it’s over.
Your mind is always trying to stay one step ahead.
Reading.
Scanning.
Preparing.
So even when things are calm…
you don’t fully relax.
Because part of you is still waiting.
Still wondering.
Still bracing for what could come next.
That quiet, constant anticipation?
That’s the part no one sees.
If this feels familiar, you’re not alone 🤍
