Helping spouse
My spouse has been free from alcohol since August. They are “California Sober” now. We’re going to an event that will have alcohol around and readily available most the time. They say they will be ok during. It’s the days after they are most concerned with. How can I help make those days easier on them. Do I give them space, prep the house with their favorites, just go about those days normally? I’m a text book over thinker. So I’m just trying my best to make sure I’m the best version of myself for them.
Yes, I know their addiction is not my fault, and if they choose to drink it’s nothing I did, but I also know being more aware can help too. I also know that if he does drink. It doesn’t erase the progress they did make. I look at how they’ve changed and grown since removing alcohol from their lives.
I’m just looking for the best ways to make things smoother for them.
