This is a YouTube video titled "Rehab Revelation: Understanding Our Emotional Addictions" featuring Beverley Simpson sharing a personal story about attending a rehab support program with high-achieving professionals. The content focuses on emotional awareness, process addictions, and the challenges faced by loved ones of addicts. The video was created in February 2025.
When I was brought back to learning how to feel my feelings and I tell this story all the time. I was sitting in a room with very high achieving men and women. Like I'm talking appellate court judges, police officers, doctors, nurses, we were all at what I call rehab camp. My husband had gone into rehab and this program was for the people who loved the people who were in rehab. Right. We all thought we were there to learn how to fix our addicts, how we could support them in being well and then we got our asses handed to us because you realized that all of us had just the biggest problem as they did. We were just avoiding our feelings using what are called process addictions versus addicts typically get into substance addictions, drugs, alcohol, sex, that kind of stuff. Process addictions are more behavior addictions control, pleasing, being passive aggressive, all those type of fun things. Right. Overworking is massive. 1.
