Detach
With Love
Are you living with a Dr. Jekyl
and Mr. Hyde? Do you wake up in the morning and wish you didn't have to start
the day with an abusive alcoholic? Are you riding on an addictive roller coaster
ride with the alcoholic you married? Do you often feel afraid and
depressed because you don't know how the alcoholic is going to behave?
Are you emotionally and mentally drained because of the behaviors and
abuses of the alcoholic in your life? Well,
it's time to break free! It's time to get off the roller coaster
ride and rescue yourself from the behaviors of the alcoholic you live
with and love. We offer the solutions you need to get your life
back and be happy while living with the alcoholic.
Rescue
Yourself From the Traps of Alcoholism
We hope that you make good use
of our healing materials that we have carefully put together by putting
the strategies and guidance to work in your personal life and marriage.
It is very possible to learn to live with and love the alcoholic in your
life, without "it" making YOU go crazy. Don't let addiction
steal another minute of your day!
Help Your Spouse get
Sober!
Do you want to help your
spouse get sober? Than stop trying to control every aspect of the
addiction. Only when you stop trying to fix your spouse and take care of
YOU can you be a valuable help to the alcoholic. Do
you often feel like you
are drowning with the alcoholic? Do you feel sad, panicky,
depressed, stressed out, helpless, and emotionally and spiritually sick?
Don’t go under with the alcoholic, swim quickly back to the shore!
This eBook shows you what you need to do to rescue YOU from the traps of
alcoholism!
Don't
be the Victim Any Longer
Addiction is so cunning that the alcoholic can manipulate their
way into your emotions in such a way to make you believe you are the
victim instead of them! Cut
the rope! Tough love is all about cutting the rope between you and the
alcoholic. Married couples are and always will be attached because God
created them as “one flesh” in marriage, but you don’t have to be
attached to the symptoms of alcoholism. You must help your
self first before you can help the alcoholic.
Is Divorce the
Answer When Married to an Alcoholic?
Is divorce the answer to ending the frustration and suffering of
living with an alcoholic spouse? When we are going through suffering
in our marriage, divorce almost always seems like the light at the end
of the tunnel, but it isn't always as bright as we think. It is God's
will that we take the good times of our marriage along with the bad.
Together couples can conquer addiction by working on self-healing and
being supportive of each other. This
ebook expresses God's will for couples in marriage who are going through
the sufferings and pains of addiction. We know its never easy, but
putting the solutions we advise in our ebook will make living with, and
loving an alcoholic, easier for the whole family. We know because
we've been there.
Alcoholism is a
Family Affair
Jumping the hurdle of being
married to an alcoholic may seem very difficult to do, because it is,
but overcoming through your own personal growth will make you stronger
and wiser person because of your willingness to conquer adversity in
your personal life and marriage. You can overcome! We've done it and
many other spouses of alcoholics have done it too. This is why we wrote
this eBook...to give you step by step instructions on how to live with
and love the alcoholic in your life. How to Detach From an
Alcoholic Spouse is your arsenal to survival.
Bonus
Ebook: Get
Sober and Be Happy at the Same Time!
Do you want to get sober? Are you
tired of abusing your loved ones with mean and angry words? Are you
tired of being trapped within the confounds of addiction? Do you often
feel guilty and hate yourself for the things you do and say when
drinking? Have you tried to stop drinking but can't or relapsed? Are you
serious about getting healthy in mind and spirit? If you answered
"yes" to these questions then I believe YOU ARE ready to get
sober for good! Addiction is a hurdle in your life that you can conquer!
Getting
Sober for Good is Total Sobriety
Getting sober for good is what we
know to be TOTAL sobriety, which is healthy in mind, body and spirit. The
author knows your pain and suffering first hand. She's been there and
done that already. She got out of the trap of alcoholism and so can you!

TESTIMONIES from
our readers
(Testimonies from others who have read this eBook or our other books on
alcoholism)
Thank you. I read
your book about Detaching from the Alcoholic Spouse over the weekend.
Your words rang true deep within my heart. Actually, on the way to
church, my son, who is studying with Moody Bible college almost repeated
verbatim what you wrote! May God bless you and your husband with this
very real ministry.
I LOVE YOUR column and I have your
book. I thought I was detaching but after reading today I
realize I have a long ways to go..
Hi Angie n
Frank, this book is
really helpful for me. now it is easy for me to understand my husband
and his alcohol problem. i will try my best to be calm n
patient while his drinking n give him all my love n
support.......................you guys are doing great job. keep it
up. God bless you. thanx.
regards.
R.
Angie,
I want to thank you for all you're doing to help those who are living
with this disease. I stumbled across your website last week on my 21st
anniversary. After 20 years of doing it the wrong way and separating
from my husband, I found Al-Anon and began my life anew. Everything you
say is so true. The first benefit of detachment is that you find peace
within yourself. As you gain strength, you begin to realize that you'll
be fine whether the alcoholic gets help or not. You're living your life
for yourself, your children, your job, your friends..... the good stuff.
I'm still saddened by the loss of the marriage I wanted to have, but I
know I can remain committed to him (in an emotionally safe way) and have
a great life at the same time. I wish you and your family a very happy
new year.
Hi,
I downloaded your ebook How to
Detach... Info has been very helpful! Thanks for your time &
thanks for all the info! T.
Hi,
this isn't so much a request for marriage guidance, but a thank you for
this website (Heaven Ministries).
It has answered questions that have remained unanswered for me for
a long time and very few people actually understand that I'm not mad to
stay with my husband who's an alcoholic binge drinker. I am a
Christian and love my husband. We need more articles of this type,
as opposed to 'get rid' and move on advice. Anyway, thanks again you
have really encouraged me and given me hope.
Angie Lewis's book gives insight into the mind of an alcoholic and
the chaos that ensues. I truly believe that most humans are touched by
either alcohol or an alcoholic at some point in our lives. This book is
a great resource and I encourage those who have authority to place this
book where many can draw from the experience, wisdom, and ministry that
Angie and her husband offer. (Review of Angie's book, The
Alcoholism Trap)
Hi Angie. I
read all of the articles on your website on addiction in marriage.
I came across it via google and it gave me hope, as in my heart I
know I didn't marry the wrong person, even though people on the outside
would try and say different. Too many people give advice to
'jump ship', but I know divorce has it's own inherent problems. I
have learnt so many strategies for living life in peace, no matter what
the circumstances. It means a lot to me to have you and your
husband praying for my husband and marriage. I look
forward to reading more on your website and going back to the
material when I need a little encouragement!
Thanks again!
Yesterday morning, I remembered I had purchased your book “The
Alcoholism Trap”. We sat down and read it aloud to each
other. Both of us found so much comfort in your words and the
bible verses. You are right…only God can delivery Jim. Thank
you so much for the strength in your words!
I know the battle is not won and there is a long road and lifetime
commitment involved. But God is here! And your book helped
us to realize that. Thank you, Angela! And God bless you and
your ministry! G.M
