Being a parent is HARD. The emotional labor and mental weight of decisions rests  heavy on healthy couples in equitable relationships. Factor in addiction, and you often have all of the responsibilities of parenting amplified exponentially onto one parent...on top of the weight and uncertainty of being in a relationship with a substance abuser. We discuss the mental load of motherhood and Celeste Yvonne's book, "It's Not About the Wine" to gain an understanding of what "de facto single parents" are facing every day. We touch on the unique challenges that parents face when their partner is absent in addiction - the responsibilities of caring for children, keeping a home in order, working, paying bills, and wondering when you will ever find time for yourself. Even in circumstances when there is no help from the village in sight, the heaviest burdens sometimes come from within.
