I reached out to the council in desperation after hearing from GamAnon that they had free services for loved ones. They told me that the recommendation was to forget my partner who is not in active recovery. This goes against the science, as there have been numerous studies how family intervention may be needed. They didn't want to pay, they ignored me, and treated me, like I am crazy. Absolutely heartbreaking money-making operation.
