For the loved ones of alcoholics, spouses in particular, the source of shame is far less direct and recognizable. The shame for the loved ones grows diabolically out of regret.

In this episode of the Untoxicated Podcast, they open up about the tangled emotions that come with recovering from alcoholism.
