When family recovery groups neglect non-addicted members' needs

Our family recovery support group keeps focusing on the addicted person's progress but those of us who are partners and family members need space to talk about our own healing, and suggesting that feels selfish or disloyal somehow.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A support structure meant to serve everyone is inadvertently centering one type of experience while marginalizing others equally valid needs.
