Ep 22 Part 2 Heavy Drinking or Alcoholism? Not Sure If Hubby Can Stop Drinking Or Not?


Listen Later

Still unsure if your husband is “just” a heavy drinker or a true alcoholic? The truth is: chasing a diagnosis often becomes a distraction that delays the healing process.

In this episode, we talk about why trying to “figure him out” won’t fix anything—and what you can do instead. Whether your husband meets a textbook definition or not, the chaos still hurts, and you deserve peace.

You'll hear:

  • Why obsessing over the “right” label can keep wives stuck in fear and codependency

  • 4 litmus test questions to help you decide when a boundary is needed

  • How both heavy drinking and alcoholism cause emotional instability in the home

  • A Christian perspective on stepping forward without all the answers

  • Real-life discussion of when helping crosses the line into enabling

    This episode is an invitation to stop diagnosing and start discerning what God is calling you to do in your family.
