In This Episode Of Middle Ground By Jubilee, Loved Ones And Addicts.

Before watching this, I saw addiction as a selfish, solitary disease, however after watching it made me realise that it effects the ones around you just as much, arguably even more than the person battling with the addiction.
As someone who has no experience with either side, I found the fact that they all agreed with the statement ‘cutting ties with a loved one with addiction is ok.’ the most surprising because for some reason I have always thought that having some sort of support system was the most important thing in any healing process. However now I am realising how naïve that sounds. As said in the video, in some scenarios, cutting ties is necessary when the relationship becomes draining and toxic, and it also serves as a sort of wake up call to the addict. But what if this doesn’t work and it just further isolates the individual to the point where they fall deeper into their addiction.

Biscuit Day!
Probably the most chaotic day. Didn’t have any icing so I couldn’t save my biscuits. My dinner party was basically me and my friends eating sushi and drinking bubble tea. I almost forgot to make myself, so i put together what looks like a shuttlecock 2 minutes before I put it into the oven. This biscuits tasted delicious though
