Years ago, a colleague did a speech on how helpful it was to genogram (sp?) about family trauma for clients. It anchored me in a way that self-help books could not. The PBS show “Finding Your Roots” bears this out. I was lucky to marry someone who was not a drinker & no ancestors were drinkers. It is a completely different lifestyle. Eating homemade blueberry crumble or custard pie is transcendent. 🎈Social support comes in disguise. Luckily, the lessons take even if the person passes on 🌅
