Wife doesnt love me anymore after 1/8 months in rehab?


(California)




My wife is in an 8 month faith based rehab and out of nowhere says shes sorry but she doesn't love me anymore and is thinking of staying passed the 8 months to be a counselor and live at the rehab.

Her parents are torn as am I and now shes saying she thought about getting a divorce right before she left. What's going on and how do I handle that? Because I'm not just going to leave after I worked so hard to get her help, I love her more than anything.

Unexpected Consequences
by: Ned Wicker

People form attachments and relationships in treatment facilities and that is an unexpected consequence of the program. Not knowing what kind of treatment program she is in, I can't offer specifics, but needless to say your wife has to adjust to living a sober lifestyle and somehow you have to find your way into that new experience. She needs time.

A lot has happened to her, many changes and I am hoping her parents will help the situation. I'm not so sure I would want her as a counselor, as I sense she is unstable emotionally and needs adjustment time to get her feet under her.

Ex-users do make good counselors, but not until they have a proven track record of living clean and sober. If she was in a faith-based treatment program, they would not recommend a divorce. I think your wife is confused and in need of guidance.

Hang in there and tell her to wait at least a year and give herself time to heal.
