#SpouseOfAnAlcoholic: Support, understanding, recovery journey, shared struggles, codependency, boundaries, mental health, love, hope, healing, support group, difficult realities, emotional toll, sobriety, and self-care.
Spouses, partners, family members, we see you. We don’t believe in silencing the raw and real things people experience just to make someone else comfortable. Coming from someone in recovery, the best thing you can do for anyone is to hold space for them and allow them to heal on their terms and on their own time. The fear of bringing shame on someone should never stand in the way of or supercede someone else discussing their experience with someone - addicted or not. If you’re in recovery and you’ve done this - do better. This one is called “Whose Story Is It To Tell?” #healing #recovery #betrayaltrauma #spouseofanalcoholic #spouseofanaddict #betrayal #narcissist #podcast #Relationship #addiction #addictionrecovery
Episode: Paige's Perspective: The Silent Abuse of Addiction - What No One Wants to Admit In this episode of Paige’s Perspective, we’re breaking down the excuses addicts use to justify staying the same—the guilt trips, the half-promises, and the ways they frame their struggles to keep you invested. You’ve heard it all: “In sickness and in health,” “Unconditional love means accepting me as I am,” “I’m trying! Recovery takes time!”—but what’s really happening beneath the surface? These aren’t necessarily intentional attempts to manipulate, but they are ways addicts avoid growth—and when those excuses keep you stuck in a cycle of harm, it becomes abusive. Nobody talks about how addicts’ behaviors are often abusive. And society? It lets them off the hook, telling you to be patient, to understand, to wait just a little longer. But here’s the truth: Addiction may be an explanation, but it’s not an excuse to keep hurting people. Abuse doesn’t have to be calculated to be real. At some point, effort needs to match impact, and words need to turn into action. In this episode, we’re exposing the stories addicts tell themselves and their partners to avoid real accountability—so you can stop getting lost in their excuses and start focusing on what you need. #fyp #addiction #spouseofanaddict #spouseofanalcoholic #recovery #narcissisticabuse #podcast

Till the Wheels Fall Off Podcast | Whose story is it to tell? #fyp #spouseofanaddict #spouseofanalcoholic #recovery #podcast #betrayaltrauma
I get this question a lot. Why did you stay? My husband never once blamed me for his issues, he allowed me to be me, he didn’t control me, he didn’t cheat on me, he didn’t tell me I was just as sick, he didn’t cross the line that would’ve been irreparable. We were 26 years old… We still had deep conversations, we missed each other when he went to rehab, and he made drastic changes to be the man he is today. I was able to trust myself enough to trust him. We need to value ourselves enough to know when enough is enough! #fyp #spouseofanaddict #spouseofanalcoholic #recovery #betrayaltrauma
Where is your sense of self-preservation? This is a natural instinct we have and we cannot ignore it any longer. It’s time to wake up and do what’s necessary for ourselves and our children. #hardtruth #fyp #spouseofanaddict #spouseofanalcoholic #podcast #recovery #betrayaltrauma
One of the greatest gifts you can give people that have been affected by an addiction is the freedom to heal on their terms and their own time - especially when it comes to talking about how our actions affected them. The shame you may feel is NOT more important than the pain they’ve endured. Their healing matters and it begins with validation and accountability. Whether they leave us or stay is beside the point. Their experiences matter. The recovery world spends a great deal of time focusing on the addicted person’s pain and insists spouses and families stay forever patient but recovery is NOT contingent on anyone staying with us. Recovery is about alchemizing the pain we’ve caused others into something beautiful. Allow others the freedom to speak about their experiences openly, take accountability for them, and walk forward a better person every day. You mistakes? Me too. Let’s learn from them and honor the experiences of those we harmed each and every day. #healing #recovery #betrayaltrauma #spouseofanalcoholic #spouseofanaddict #betrayal #narcissist #podcast #addiction #addictionrecovery #marriage
Marriage is about growth and evolving together!! We are not meant to be the same people we were when we got married. #fyp #spouseofanaddict #spouseofanalcoholic #recovery #podcast #addiction
Spouses and partners are often left out of the recovery conversation. The addicted person needs the focus and attention, and spouses and partners are left feeling lonely and lost. Their voices rarely get the chance to speak their truth. We got the opportunity to be guests on @Recovery Vow podcast to discuss our journey of healing together after addiction and how we got to where we are today. It’s an amazing candid conversation with amazing video and audio quality. It drops tomorrow! #healing #recovery #betrayaltrauma #spouseofanalcoholic #spouseofanaddict #betrayal #addiction #addictionrecovery #healing #marriage #narcissist #podcast
Harm isn’t erased by good intentions. We experience the outcome of actions, not the intention behind them. Normalize this. #fyp #spouseofanaddict #spouseofanalcoholic #podcast #addiction #recovery
It’s okay to not have a relapse in you… #fyp #spouseofanaddict #spouseofanalcoholic #podcast #relapse #recovery
Loving someone shouldn’t mean betraying yourself. Unconditional love doesn’t mean tolerating the intolerable. #fyp #selfrespect #emotionalabuse #spouseofanaddict #spouseofanalcoholic #podcast #recovery

We’ve been conditioned to believe that judging others makes us cruel—but judgment is a survival tool. It helps you recognize red flags, set boundaries, and protect yourself. And yet, some people and even society weaponize the fear of judgment against you: “You’re too harsh,” “You’re not perfect either,” “Everyone deserves a second chance.” But let’s be real—some behaviors should be judged. #fyp #spouseofanaddict #spouseofanalcoholic #recovery #addiction #betrayal #narcissist #trustyourgut
What should I do in my situation? You probably already know. The answer is just your biggest fear. If your daughter or son approached you with your situation, what would tou tell them? If you were approached by someone with your exact same problem, what advice would you give them? Treat yourself like you are someone you’re responsible for caring for. We often know the answers to our predicaments but we hope like hell it’s not true. 😞 #healing #recovery #betrayaltrauma #spouseofanalcoholic #spouseofanaddict #betrayal #narcissist #podcast #addiction #addictionrecovery #marriage #Relationship
This is the super challenging work that no one talks about, but it’s a necessary conversation. #fyp #trauma #cyclebreakers #spouseofanaddict #spouseofanalcoholic #podcast
You are not difficult, complicated, or demanding. You just finally have standards. And the only people who hate that are the ones who benefitted from you having none. #fyp #spouseofanaddict #spouseofanalcoholic #recovery #boundaries #betrayaltrauma
You didn’t get to choose the person your partner became in their addiction. You didn’t sign up for the lies, the manipulation, the instability, or the heartbreak. But you do get to choose what happens next. You get to decide whether your children grow up in a home where love means fear, where apologies come without change, where chaos is normal. Or whether they inherit something better—peace, security, a version of love that is real and safe. Breaking the cycle doesn’t just mean leaving—it means refusing to let your children think this is love. It means showing them, through your choices, what they should never settle for. You get to rewrite the story for them, starting now. #fyp #podcast #addiction #recovery #spouseofanaddict #spouseofanalcoholic #cyclebreakers #narcissist
When your parent makes you their emotional crutch, it rewires how you handle emotions—especially in your closest relationships. I learned to feel responsible for fixing everything, and as an adult, that turned into shutting down or getting angry when my wife was upset. It wasn’t her—it was my defense from years of emotional overload as a kid. This is the hidden cost of parentification and emotional enmeshment: setting kids up to struggle with intimacy, connection, and support later in life. If this hits home, know this—you can break the cycle. We did. It’s painful to recount because she didn’t deserve that. The last person you want to hurt with your old patterns is the person you love the most. It may not have been my fault, but it’s my responsibility today. It’s hard to break those patterns and just another symptom of growing up with emotionally immature or addicted parents. #parentifiedchild #addiction #recovery #healing #betrayal #trauma #enmeshment #addictionrecovery #spouseofanaddict #spouseofanalcoholic #marriage #Relationship #betrayaltrauma #podcast #parentification
Breaking free from generational cycles isn't just about addiction—it’s about rewiring everything you were conditioned to believe: how you communicate, how you cope, how you parent, and how you love. In this episode, we dive deep into what it really means to break toxic patterns, why it’s so hard, and how to measure progress. We explore the grief that comes with leaving behind the family dynamics you once knew, the resistance you'll face, and why it's all worth it—not just for you, but for the generations that follow. #fyp #podcast #addiction #spouseofanaddict #spouseofanalcoholic #recovery #cyclebreakers
I guess I always thought I’d just grow out of it. Every event in my life I assumed would kickstart a happy life of clean living cane and went, and things only got worse. I think spouses and partners have a parallel journey from the opposite side of things. My wife assumed I would grow up, get it together, and start being the partner I promised I’d be…but as time goes on it becomes evident that only honesty and action can change the pattern. #healing #recovery #betrayaltrauma #addiction #betrayal #addictionrecovery #podcast #spouseofanalcoholic #spouseofanaddict #narcissist
