    Guilt and shame are huge factors. Letting those prone to addiction know that they are not being judged and are unconditionally loved, and that they are having a normal human experience, is huge imo. I like that mindfulness book called 30 Days to Overcome Guilt by Harper Daniels when feeling judged.

      I agree, but it’s nearly an impossible ask. The addict will feel guilt tripped when they are not, because they have a guilty conscience.
      Example: I found a list my husband wrote about everything I guilted him about. One was that I guilted him about going to church. Not once did I! I would go to church routinely, and I would invite him, but seriously no pressure, I told him as much. Or he also felt he was being guilt tripped bc I started going to Alanon. No, I was just going.

    What I got from this video
    Don't force them.
    Don't make counselling punishment.
    Don't think we know what's best for that person.
    Don't expect them to change it might never happen.
    Get on with your own life.
    Counselling can be damaging to people that are not ready for it.

    Thank you so much for these videos, they are invaluable and make a difference in the lives of many people. Please, if it’s not too much to ask, enable or add English subtitles for those who have hearing difficulties or are not familiar with the language. Many thanks, greetings from Europe!

      Hi Carloss, After the live broadcast ends, RUclips will typically process the video and generate a full set of subtitles/captions within a few hours.

    It seems that the addict has a short term memory problem. They feel sooo much better that they think "I got this"!

    He pushed me away after I was there for him 😢
    He did go to detox once, but he didn’t go for long enough so I didn’t work
    He broke up with me 😢💔
    He also told me that he didn’t believe in counseling that he put all his stuff behind him - do not true !
    He was very, very insecure. Why do you think that is?
    Something happened in his past and I asked him about it several times and he said nothing happened but told me how angry he was at a past girlfriend And did physical harm to her, so you got anger issues
    And he showed me last night that we were together - I did not know that was there still from his past that night 😢 he scared me

    Do you guys not have drug court there? You’re definitely mandated. A year of treatment, weekly random ua’s and the first three months you go Monday through Friday. And of course, there’s court. And the judge.

      I put up with that 9 yrs finally divorced him. He came home and has stayed sober. He had me blocked 70 days living with another woman. Been back 6 months. I lost 40 pounds and he found out and that's why he came back. Keto diet. Try that I'm 56

      That’s how my ex was
      Loved me one day and then all of a sudden he hated me and then picked a fight and left 😢
      It’s so heartbreaking because you can’t stop them from drinking

      She told me on last day I saw her everything was my fault she never came home after that or went back to work. The company she worked for was trying to send her back rehab for the second time but she wouldn't reply and then changed her number
