Detach with Love from the Alcoholic (article 1.) To detach with love from the alcoholic means to not allow what they do while drinking harm your emotional and or spiritual well being. Detaching with love is something learned that over time becomes a habit-a good habit actually. To understand how detaching with love works, we must first understand what not detaching is, and what it does to us, as well as the alcoholic you live with. When we don't detach we get angry, resentful, and sometimes fearful over the behaviors of the alcoholic. This happens because we are "too" consumed with the behaviors of the alcoholic or better known as the symptoms of the drinking. Spouses of alcoholics, especially tend to be overly attached and focused on the alcoholics negative behaviors that stem from his or her drinking, which makes a negative impact on the life of the spouse-they may feel hatred and contempt for the alcoholic. But lashing back in anger or feeling resentful over the alcoholic's negative behaviors is making you sick with the alcoholic. This is why loved ones must learn to detach emotionally from the drinking alcoholic. Only by detaching do you help yourself as well as the alcoholic. When loved ones stop reacting, negatively to the behaviors, the alcoholic begins to "see" they do have a drinking problem and hopefully they will take responsibility for the problem. A loved ones only responsibility to an alcoholic is to make sure they do not hurt themselves or anyone when they are drinking and to be loving and supportive when they alcoholic decides to get sober. Love the person but detach from the disease or the condition of alcoholism. ************** Getting Sober and Staying Sober for Good For many alcoholics sobriety comes and goes, and this is because we have to want to get sober for ourselves, not our loved ones. It's a nice gesture to get sober for family, but eventually sobriety does not hold up on someone else's convictions. The alcoholic must be convicted in their own heart and mind to quit drinking and to stay sober for good. Don't confuse conviction with "will power". Alcoholism is an insidious sickness and quitting by ones own will power is impossible because addiction is a powerful force that takes hold of a person spiritually, emotionally and physically and does not let go without the help of God intervening. The number one reason that alcoholics and drug addicts do not stay clean and sober is they never humbled their past lives to God in the first place. God doesn't make alcoholics. We choose that for ourselves. God is our healer. Coming out of the traps of alcoholism is a rebirth process with a new attitude of the heart and mind. If there is no rebirth, alcoholism remains attached to the body in every aspect. Getting sober and staying sober takes willingness from the alcoholic but takes God's intervention for sobriety. There are three main aspects of alcoholism that need attention and healing; they are emotional, physical and spiritual. If one of these areas is not healthy, the chances of the alcoholic drinking again are much higher. You can get sober and stay sober for good by getting healthy in all three of these areas.
