don’t allow yourself to get too far down. lean on people you care about. don’t contact your (ex)husband until he has some time clean and sober….

Thanks. You are right. but what do I do when I there is no one to lean on. I usually am the strong one

Hi, My husband did the same thing a long time ago.I know it is so tough and you feel so alone. Everything will work out you did nothing wrong and he did not do it to hurt you he did it because he is sick and needs help. So be strong you are worth it! If you need any advise or just need some one to talk to just lean on me! -mandy

Mandy are you back with your husband now? Did he seek treatment?

Yes I am back with my husband. He seeked treatmeant in the beginning just to please me and try to get his family back. He relapsed 2 more times. I never fell for it! It woke him up finally when I sold are house and he got divorce papers. He had to hit rock bottom before he relized he had to do it for him and no one else! It is along process to get back to stability. Even know I get concerned when he has to take pain meds and we go to a get together were there is alchol.
