Hannah – Being the Mother of an Alcoholic


Listen Later

This week on Wellbeing, we talk with Hannah, the mother of two adult alcoholics. Many have heard of how alcohol affects the person using it but a perspective not heard from much is that of the families. In this episode, Hannah shares with us first a bit about her late teen marriage to an alcoholic partner and how that affected the young family, the hardship of being a mother of teen alcoholics, the challenging family dynamics, and how boundaries have enabled Hannah to manage her relationship with her alcoholic sons.

Hannah is a member of Al-Anon family groups and this episode is a part of our series where we speak to members of that group.

Tune in next week when we speak to a former wife of an alcoholic.

We would love to hear from you! If you would like to suggest topics, give us feedback, or just say hi, you can contact us on [email protected]
