Bridget's Brave Journey: Love, Loss, and New Beginnings

I thought he was sober and we sat down. I ended up having lunch with him One Day and I said I just want to know what medication is it that you think I'm supposed to be taking that I've stopped, and he named it and it was a common antipsychotic.
Imagine standing by someone you love as their drinking tears apart not just their health, but your marriage too. That's the heart-wrenching reality Bridget faced. In this episode of the Untoxicated Podcast, Matt and Sheri Salis sit down with Bridget to unravel her emotional story. She opens up about the lies, the hiding, and the gaslighting that are all too familiar to those who love an alcoholic.
Bridget made the incredibly tough choice to move on and live the life she had once dreamed of sharing with her husband, now on her own. Her story is one of resilience and courage as she navigates through the chaos of addiction at home and finds a path to healing and hope.
Bridget also offers a surprising piece of advice for mothers with young children in similar situations, making this episode a must-listen for anyone grappling with the impact of a loved one's alcoholism. Tune in to hear how she broke free from the cycle of alcohol abuse and discovered a new beginning.
