  • THE CURE FOR DEPRESSION WHEN YOU LOVE AN ALCOHOLIC OR SUBSTANCE ABUSER // I made a video for you all today since it's Friday and weekends can be so hard when you love someone who drinks too much or suffers from addiction. Sorry about the no make-up (I did put some lip gloss on) and ponytail. I'm working super hard these days and this is as good at it gets until the Love Over Addiction Mentor program is up and running:)

    Secular research has shown that expressing thankfulness raises serotonin & endorphins.
    Saying thank you's to God adds another helpful dimension of Spiritual support!
    Just as love casts out fear, gratitude casts out entitlement & depression.
    Gratitude helps anxiety, too!
    God Bless your ministry, Michelle!

    I’m so happy you got the help you needed. Thank you so much for this. It arrived at the perfect time. A dear friend finally admitted herself into a month of rehab. She is an alcoholic and Bi-polar. Her husband is trying so hard to help her. She gets physically abusive to all her family members. I’ll share this with him.

    So glad I found this video. Im dealing with a spouse who is a backslidden christian who has many addictions. I just did the exact same thing 1 week ago. When u focus on your blessings you're not consumed with their problems. I've definitely experienced a mindset change. Gratitude changes your whole outlook! God is so good .God bless I've learned alot. I have 2 kids and I'm just focusing on them and my relationship with God and not my husbands addictions. God is in control of my life , in the end He wins! I'm gonna be ok. Whatever that looks like. You cannot change an addict only God can do that!!!

    I love a man my best friend lived with him for 5 yrs .he was 62 yrs old. His brother diedon christmasday last year. All of the laughter and good times ended for Jim. He had a best friend who died and i watched my sweetheart. Drink himself to death...within 3 weeks. I tried everything to get him off the hard alcohol. I told him how pathetic he had become. Falling down...dropping his plate of dinner..and then asking me why i didntmake dinner. Burning himself with ciggaretts. Burning the furniture. Bouncing off of walls... Breaking things when he was drunk.. I shamed him and now hes dead . he died a month ago. I feel so guilty. He died in physical and emotional pain. R.I.P. JIMMY

      Hi Angie - Thank you for reaching out. Our hearts go out to you and all that you've been through. That's so heartbreaking. Please relieve yourself of any guilt that you're feeling. The loving truth is, he was a grown man with an illness. None of this is your fault. Please practice some self-care...even if it's just something small. You're worth it. Sending you love and support. You're not alone.

      My husband died too. I can relate to this feeling. God knows that you did not want to see anything bad happen to your husband. Forgive yourself for not being able to decide for him. You can not control other people. You can be there and be supportive and encouraging. Something tells me that you were those things also.
