Episode 27: The Progression of an Alcoholic Relationship
12/09/21 • 11 min
When we marry our husbands we usually don't have any indication that we will be married to an alcoholic. And if we do, we usually don't think it's 'that bad'.
But one of the main problems with alcoholism is that it is a progressive disease, meaning that it gets worse over time.
Unfortunately that is also what happens to most alcoholic relationships as well.
In this episode we will talk about what that progression looks like, and what you absolutely MUST be doing as the relationship with the alcoholic progresses and/or deteriorates.

Episode 26: What ‘One day at a time’ Means for the Wife of an Alcoholic
You've probably heard the phrase 'One day at a time' as it relates to an alcoholic's recovery.
But what does it mean for us?
In this episode we'll talk about how that concept is different for the wife of an alcoholic, but just as important.
If you frequently find yourself in the midst of fear, anxiety, and overwhelm then you need to give this one a listen.

Episode 28: Should you drink if your husband is an alcoholic?
This is a loaded subject, because reaction to this from wives of alcoholics usually runs the gamut from 'I HATE alcohol and would never touch it!' to 'Why should I have to change MY drinking habits because HE has a drinking problem?'
So today we're going to dive into this head-on.
I'll share a few things I think are important to consider when making this decision for yourself.
We'll also talk about some ways that alcohol affects our side of things that you might not have thought about.
And I'll share what I consider to be the #1 reason why you need to give this some serious thought.
PS: Be sure to listen to the postscript I added to the episode for anyone whose husband is currently in recovery.
