Drinkers's women can think they are going crazy--that there's something wrong with them, but other than the chaos they may live in with a man who drinks too much, most are really okay. A bit stressed, a bit emotionally drained, a bit anxious, and a bit depressed--maybe. But overall, she is by far the most sane of the partnership. In fact, I can tell you (after some 43 years of working with drinkers and their families) that women who become drinkers's women tend to be some of the finest, kindest, dearest people on earth. And the strongest. Yet most disagree, believing instead that they are falling far short. If this is you, you just don't see the reality because of the stress caused by the behavior of the drinker--and a few mental-emotional quirks that were in place long before you even met this man. If you want to know more about that, read the full book that this one is taken from for an eye-opener. An over-drinker's woman wants to know what's going on with him--indeed, she needs to know what's going on with him. For starters, she needs to determine if he truly has a drinking problem and, if so, how far advanced it is. And that's what this book is all about. Chapter 5 of "Does He Drink Too Much?" (this book) gives specific information. Further, it includes an assessment tool that lets the concerned woman find the answers for herself. We received many requests for a separate copy of the assessment, so we pulled out the entire chapter. We look forward to hearing from you--whether it helps you, and how--and, especially, if it doesn't help, what more you want to know. Often we can respond or answer questions in our blog, www.hedrinkstoomuch.com. Your input can help many others who have the same questions by getting us to add information for readers.
Beth is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 45 years's experience working with over-drinkers and their families. She writes books to broadcast some of what she has learned in these many years working in the heart of the problem. Her concern is that so much needed information is lacking for the public, in great part because vested interests oppose its being spread. The common wisdom about problem drinking, problem drinkers, and especially their women, is mostly wrong. Few know the totality of destruction of the brain cells from over-drinking (drinking more than the National Institutes of Health label "safe"). Few know that the stress an over-drinker's partner lives with affects her emotionally, mentally, even physically. Her books address all of these vital problems. Beth lives in Florida--has 4 children, 12 grandchildren, and 8 great-grandchildren. She loves writing, reading, gardening, music, friends and family, fun, and dogs. She really loves hearing from readers with both good and bad comments. Contact her at www.hedrinkstoomuch.com, a website and blog.
