Has alcohol been introduced into your marriage, and now is over staying its time? Then it is time to get rid of alcohol abuse in your marriage once and for all! And don't worry, you don't have to do this alone.
Alcohol is found all around the world, and is used for many, many things. Some good, and some bad. Sometimes people will resort to alcohol to numb a pain, forget a memory, and to just make it through the day. That is when it starts to cause a problem in marriages.
The first step to getting rid of alcohol in your marriage to recognize it is an addiction and is causing a problem. It will be much easier for you to see this than your spouse who has the addiction. So try not to get frustrated if they do not see they have a problem right away. Once they do, the healing begins. Because they of course do not want to cause you any pain, and they will finally realize that is what they were doing. Once they have the urge to stop drinking, and make a change, they will start to develop the will power that is necessary to say goodbye to alcohol in your marriage. To be able to stop drinking, your spouse will need to figure out what caused the drinking in the first place. Usually there will be a couple events that will lead to drinking, but there will always be the first cause, a memory, feeling, event etc. Whatever it may be, they need to figure it out. If they don't, the chance of them drinking again is a quite a bit higher than if they were to figure out the cause.
Once your spouse figures out the cause of the drinking, they can work to remove that problem. They may need your assistance, they may need to seek a counsellor. But once they find the solution to that problem, the drinking will eventually come to an end, the time frame depends on each individual person. One thing to keep in mind is if they were drinking extremely heavily, be very careful for signs of withdrawal. It can lead to serious medical problems, if not worse. This usually only happens with some tries to quit cold turkey.
Use this advice to make sure alcohol is no longer a problem in your marriage, and you both can start a brand new life with each other!
Good luck!
