marriedCrazy, thanks for reply. And by the way, didnt mean to offend anyone on this thread with my outburst earlier. I get a little bipolar at times. Yes, H is probably alcoholic - he has even admitted to it- says he is "functioning alcoholic" drinking himself to "oblivion" and becoming addicted to tobacco since losing his love for me. Says he will get help, then says no, he can help himself. I now realize how co-dependent Ive been these years, and it probably exhaused me emotionally (H left cuz I wasnt there for him "intimately or emotionally") Yes, Ive been to 1 alnon meeting a couple months ago. It was really more of an open AA meeting. I felt a little awkward and became very emotional - couldnt control my tears. I think part of me is still in denial about it- after all he has held a job, never abusive, only drinks after work.....I dont need to be at those meetings.......see the co dependency? Your W- what convinced her to get help? I feel a large part of all this craziness is alcohol taking over their brains.. if he would just get help, would there be hope for our M? I need to work on myself too, but it would certainly be a step in the right direction
