Growing Up in Chaos: How Alcoholic Parents Shape Adult Lives

I feel like that real, true attunement and presence wasn't available in my household, and so when people are truly there with me, I feel very uncomfortable because I don't know how to be seen like that.
Imagine growing up in a household where alcohol ruled, and the chaos it brought left lasting marks. In this episode of 'Done with Debauchery', hosts Keisha Scott and Denise dive into the profound impact that having alcoholic parents can have on children, who then carry these experiences into adulthood. They candidly discuss the unique behavioural traits and mental health challenges faced by Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACOA).
With warmth and empathy, Keisha and Denise share their own stories, shedding light on the often-overlooked effects of such upbringing. From struggles with self-worth to difficulties in forming healthy relationships, this conversation is both eye-opening and relatable. The episode doesn't just focus on the hardships; it also highlights the resilience and strengths that can emerge from these tough beginnings.
If you or someone you know grew up in a similar environment, this episode offers valuable insights and a sense of solidarity. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding and find a community that truly gets it.
