Synopsis

Are you loving someone who’s trapped in addiction—and losing yourself in the process?

You’re not alone. You’re not crazy. And yes, your life can get better.

Help! I Think My Loved One Is an Alcoholic is your life-saving companion through the chaos of loving someone with alcoholism. Whether you're a spouse, partner, sibling, child, or friend of an alcoholic, this practical survival guide helps you make sense of their behavior—and your own.

In this compassionate and deeply personal book, Michelle S. Fondin shares her own experience loving an alcoholic while offering real-world tools, emotional insight, and spiritual encouragement. You’ll find validation, guidance, and most importantly, hope.

Inside This Book, You’ll Discover:

  • What alcoholism really is (and what it’s not—it’s not a moral failing or a lack of willpower)
  • How to recognize the signs of addiction and understand why your loved one drinks
  • Why love, trust, and hope often feel impossible—and how to navigate that with clarity
  • The psychological and emotional toll of lies, denial, blame, and manipulation
  • Practical “action steps” in every chapter to help you survive emotionally, mentally, and spiritually
  • What early sobriety looks like (and why it’s often confusing and messy)
  • How to surrender and let go—while keeping your compassion intact
  • A spiritual perspective on healing with guidance on connecting to God or a higher power


This Book Is for You If:

  • You’re exhausted trying to help an alcoholic change
  • You feel like you’re walking on eggshells
  • You’re struggling with guilt, resentment, or confusion
  • You want to support your loved one, but not at the cost of your peace
  • You’re seeking answers, boundaries, and spiritual healing


With insights from real-life “stories from the trenches,” Michelle walks you through the emotional roller coaster of addiction, from the first signs to early recovery. Each chapter is filled with heartfelt support and empowering guidance to help you reclaim your peace—no matter what your loved one chooses.

You didn’t cause the addiction. You can’t control it. But you can survive it—and even grow through it.

Let this book be your guide on the journey to healing, clarity, and self-love.
