Luck? No, recovery takes work. Work to come out of hiding. Work to break the addiction cycle. Work to lean how to connect. It’s not just something you can read about in a book; you have to work at it.

One of the most rewarding parts of my career is helping people come out of the dark and into the light because they start feeling love for the first time. As we become more fully connected to others through the recover process, we’ll feel it more deeply.

An important part of the recovery process is learning how to identify and manage your emotions. By addressing the emotions instead of downplaying them, you will show your spouse that you truly see her. If she doesn’t feel seen by you, you cannot protect that woman. On the other hand, if she can see that you get why she is hurt, then the anxiety will come down.

Have you ever heard that communication is 80% body language? Can you tell what these people are feeling just by looking at them?

Spouses will often tell me they know that their partner is about to slip before it happens because they can feel it coming. This is usually because the addict is experiencing some sort of pain, and they may not even realize it. Learning to recognize and address that pain is a key part of the recovery process.

Recovery is a process that grows over time. Sometimes it can seem slow but just like a tall tree, your growth will be adding up little by little over time. Consistent work and staying in the light will help you rebuild trust and connection.

In the height and intensity of trauma it's not uncommon for people to say things that are hurtful. If this happens to you, the best thing is to not get dramatic with it. Don’t turn the tables and say what she is doing wrong. She wouldn’t be in that position if it wasn’t for what you did.

Light is a powerful force. It makes it easier to see. It provides energy and warmth. We also talk about it a lot in recovery because you have to bring things into the light if you want to change.
