Through Her Eyes: Understanding Alcoholism from a Wife's Perspective

Perhaps at this point we got a divorce and took the children home to father and mother. The alarming physical and mental symptoms- the deepening pall of remorse pall is gloomy effect. As animals on a treadmill, we have patiently and wearily climbed, falling back in exhaustion after each futile attempt to reach solid ground.
What’s it like to live with an alcoholic spouse? This episode of 'The Big Book Study' takes you into the world of wives who stand by their partners battling alcoholism. Tim B. sheds light on the emotional rollercoaster and financial strain that often accompany this journey. You'll hear about the importance of honest communication and the role it plays in fostering positive change within Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) members. This episode doesn’t shy away from the tough stuff.
It offers practical strategies for coping, like the power of support groups and the crucial need for self-care. It also tackles the stigma surrounding alcoholism and highlights how a spiritual adviser can be a game-changer in the recovery process. For anyone looking to understand the intricate dynamics of alcoholism from a wife’s viewpoint, this episode is both compassionate and informative. It’s a must-listen for those directly affected by alcoholism or anyone supporting a loved one through their recovery journey.
