Partners’ Guide to Addiction

When a partner is caught in gambling, gaming, shopping, pornography or another compulsive behaviour, the relationship can start revolving around checking, promises, money and mistrust. This guide is written for the partner standing beside that experience. It covers financial and digital boundaries, difficult conversations, rebuilding trust, understanding what sits underneath the behaviour and making sure your own life does not disappear into somebody else’s recovery. I have included books and UK help routes too.

I have made this as a separate resource because being a partner brings its own questions, emotions and pressures. You will find practical reflection space, book recommendations and help information inside as well.
