Description
Living with a Problem Drinker by Rolande Anderson explores the profound impact of excessive drinking on family health and well-being. A clearer understanding of alcohol problems has led to more sophisticated definitions, including hazardous, harmful, or dependent drinking. However, for those affected, the label is less important than finding ways to survive. This book delves into how to deal with the damage caused by alcohol problems in families, moving forward even when the alcoholic denies the issue. Topics include coping strategies such as enabling and recognizing negative emotions like defiance and deep resentment. It also addresses practical concerns like money worries, violence, and protecting children. By examining complex family dynamics and offering guidance on how to leave if needed, this book provides a supportive framework for those affected by problem drinking.
