When Sobriety Breaks Up The Family

from Doc Jacques: Your Addiction Lifeguard · host Dr. Jacques de Broekert, LPC

Send us Fan Mail Getting sober was supposed to fix everything, right? The family reunites, the credits roll, everybody hugs. Yeah, well — nobody told your wife, your kids, or your brother who hasn't called since Thanksgiving. Turns out recovery doesn't come with a guarantee that the people who survived your addiction will stick around for your sobriety. Today Doc Jacques tackles the uncomfortable truth that sometimes getting clean costs you the very relationships you got clean for — and what you do when the happy ending doesn't show up on schedule. Support the show
