Bridget's tale on Real Recovery reveals the challenges of growing up with alcoholic parents and marrying an alcoholic, despite never having a drinking problem herself. Her journey is filled with heartache, resilience, and ultimately, hope. Bridget shares how her unhealthy relationship habits led her to a path of recovery, not from alcohol, but from the emotional scars left by those close to her.
