Review of Untoxicated Podcast - All wives of alcoholics need this

All wives of alcoholics need this podcast

☆

“This podcast for me was at once validating and inspirational. Like most wives are of alcoholics desperate to save the man I love - who is suffering from a horrible disease - I poured over the internet looking for answers. What I found time and time again was - blame and shame towards the caregivers and moral judgement against my husband. Time and time again I was told that I was in part to blame and that I needed to let him hit “rock bottom” to shock and shame him into seeking help. A dangerous life threatening proposition - that no one would ever dream of telling a wife of someone suffering from cancer or dementia…. I stumbled upon this podcast from reading Matt’s posts in Medium. It was such a breath of fresh air. Finally someone with common sense and heart that gets it and has made it out of the tunnel victorious with their marriage thriving. I cannot say enough good things about this podcast. The one I would recommend listening to first is pro-dependency. I promise it will make you cry from finally being heard and understood. To some of the negative reviews - my response is: 1) AA and ALANON also did not work for my husband - this podcast simply states that there are other alternatives. And fwiw this podcast spoke to me SPECIFICALLY because I was so frustrated about how AA and ALANON’S approach didn’t work for our family. I feel that Matt and Sherri’s approach may be better suited for more academically oriented couples. Lots of promoting evidence based approaches. 2) To some of the commentators about the nature of Matt and Sheri’s marriage…I’m at a loss. There are vast cultural differences throughout our country. Please respect their dynamics as you would want someone to respect the dynamics of your alcoholic relationship. Please keep up the good work guys. You are making a difference in the lives of so many!”

AL-ANON and AA WORK- Don’t settle for a ‘company’ portraying that

☆

“AL-ANON and AA is not shameful or deceptive as your descriptive tone expresses in your podcasts. Our programs have worked since the 1930’s. Yes it’s not for everyone but I have personally tried to follow ‘somebody’ for recovery. It fails. Whether that ‘somebody’ is in it for money or...”Read full review »

Volume issues

☆

“The content of this podcast is pretty helpful but I listen to it with earbuds and the extreme volume up/down is HORRIBLE. My ears are damaged for sure. They have guests that speak soooooo low so I turn up the volume to hear, then everyone laughs and my eardrums are blown. Or Sheri talks low and...”Read full review »
