Living with an Addict

"It'll get better" - that's what your partner says, and you're probably inclined to believe him. At least you used to be, but recently you've once again had to ask yourself: is this still normal, or has it already become an addiction?

Course description

Maybe you feel somewhat responsible. He keeps saying that his issues with alcohol, drugs, gambling, or pornography are your fault because you're not a good wife or you don't take care of the house. Sometimes, his family or even yours echoes these claims, trying to convince you that if you were different, your husband would be better and wouldn't have such problems. You feel hurt, angry, and powerless.

A course not just for women and not only for those affected by alcohol-related problems!

PS: This course is directly connected to the issue of alcohol addiction, which we cover in the course: Alcohol Addiction - you can take advantage of this option simultaneously.
