Spouse and Family Support
"The Spouse and Family Support Guide helps spouses and family members of those overcome by addiction to find healing through the Savior, Jesus Christ, and the support of others."
I was introduced to this program in July 2014. I had received a great deal of help and healing through the original 12 step program and I was hesitant to begin something new. However after having worked this program I have received an additional level of healing. Just like the original program, I do not view this as 12 steps and done, but 12 steps and start over. Each time through you will find new insights and new healing.
******(For more help, scroll down to the bottom of this page for additional supports that are just for spouses and family members. I am trying to make this as easy as possible. As I find more helps I will put them at the bottom of this page and will update it regularly. There is A LOT of help out there! I will continue to update my "other sites and articles" tab with helps as well)*******

In addition to working these steps, please go to meetings. Whether it be online, over the phone or in person, please go to meetings. There is strength that comes from being with others who are on the same path. Please go to meetings.
