Alcohol Dependence Syndrome Family Dynamics

Alcohol Dependence Syndrome affects not just the individual but the entire family system, creating cycles of codependency, emotional strain, and social stigma. High expressed emotions, mistrust, and role confusion often damage relationships and increase relapse risk. Spouses and children carry hidden burdens that may continue across generations if left unaddressed. With timely therapy, psychoeducation, and family support, healing and resilience are possible for both the person and their loved ones. L@A
