Inside The Mind Of An Addict

How Functional Alcoholics Rebuild Trust (Without Rehab)


Listen Later

Trust doesn’t come back through treatment, promises, or apologies—it comes back through proof.

If you’re a functional alcoholic trying to rebuild trust with your family, or you’re living with someone whose drinking has damaged trust, this episode is for you.

In this live stream, Amber breaks down why saying “just trust me” rarely works after broken promises—and what actually helps families start to feel safe again. You’ll learn the critical difference between accountability and surveillance, and why confusing the two often keeps families stuck in conflict.

This episode also explores practical, real-world tools for high-functioning people with drinking problems, including how to demonstrate sobriety without rehab or AA, and what families need to see—not just hear—before trust can begin to rebuild.
