Is He Just White Knuckling His Way Through Recovery?

in this episode of Overcoming Betrayal and Addiction, Dr. Rob and Tami answer a question from a betrayed partner who has stuck by her addict for the last ten years and has finally had enough. Now, the addict suddenly wants to change for the better. Dr. Rob and Tami explore whether the relationship really is gone for good, or if there’s still hope for recovery. They explain the concept of ‘dry drunk’ and why some addicts ‘white knuckle’ their way through recovery instead of surrendering and becoming vulnerable.
