Hi @ZoNav,
Welcome to the forums 🙂 It is so courageous to come to a new space and share what is happening for you. Sorry to hear that your partner is struggling, that sounds so challenging. It is great to hear she is engaging with help, but the drinking preventing medication from working sounds concerning.
I would be really interested to hear what other forum members have to say about discussing with loved ones behaviours that we know are not so good for their recovery or health.
I hope you find the forums helpful. If you would like to 'tag' another member just put @ in front of their name.
Here is a 'closed' discussion (one that members can't contribute to anymore) discussing caring for someone who struggles with drugs or alcohol.
And here is a thread where you can introduce yourself to the carers forum if you would like, it is completely optional!
And lastly I am wondering if you or your partner would benefit from calling Direct Line, which is a 24 hour helpline for people concerned about drug or alcohol affecting them or a loved one. Their number is 1800 888 236.
Take care,
Tortoiseshell
