Wife wants divorce after detox?

by John




My wife came back from detox for opiates, and then said she doesn't love me anymore. She is 30 days sober, and we are separated (at my request). We have 2 small kids. I am not sure if she really does not love me or if this is part of the initial insanity that comes with dealing with addiction.

She does not talk to me about the relationship, so I am preparing for divorce. I hear this is common, but I can't find good advice on the subject.

Any thoughts?

Slow Down
by: Ned Wicker

Understand you are with someone who is making the transformation from a diseased and troubled mind, to sobriety and with that comes some adjustment. Give it some time and get some help for yourself through Al-Anon or Alcoholics Anonymous.

Addiction is a family disease, so be patient and know that you have to go through this together. I also realize the emotional toll of this process can be very difficult. That's why self-care is so important. Get some help for yourself and learn how you can be a help to your wife.

Individuals are told not to make any rash decisions for up to 6 months to a year, because of the emotional issue that goes with recovery.
