Shortness of breath can be alarming. When you feel like you can’t get enough air, it’s natural to worry - especially if you don’t know what’s causing it. While shortness of breath can have many physical causes, it’s also a common symptom of anxiety and panic reactions. Understanding the difference can help you react appropriately, calm your body, and get the care you need.

February 13 is International Self Love Day, a reminder that recovery isn’t just about healing relationships with others, but with yourself too. Self care can be simple. Taking a walk, eating a home cooked meal, getting some rest, writing a few thoughts down, or reaching out for support when you need it. The smallest acts of self love can make a massive difference.

How will you show yourself a little care today? 💚

Loving someone in recovery can be incredibly meaningful - but it can also be emotionally complex, especially when relapse occurs. If you’re trying to figure out what to do when your partner relapses, you’re not alone. Relapse is often misunderstood, and many partners feel scared, hurt, confused, or unsure how to help without enabling harmful behavior.
