The recovery journey for a spouse or partner of an alcoholic or addict is not as organized as that of a substance abuser and it's far less controlled. Treatment centers, IOP and PHP programs all over the country offer solace to people struggling from addiction and a safe place for them to get away from their environment to focus on themselves for 30, 60, 90 days or more. The spouse has been clear minded the entire time through active addiction, they pick up extra slack in the relationship, and this continues onward whether someone is working towards sobriety or not. With so little time to focus on the damage caused from emotional and psychological abuse, the recovery journey for a spouse or partner is longer, harder, and far less clear than that of someone with an addiction treatment plan. In this episode we cover some of the reasons the journey of a spouse or partner may take longer than a substance abuser, and discuss some ways you can avoid some of the same pitfalls we encountered.
