It's not the alcohol that had the power over you. It was your dependency on it like a crutch. Addicts tend to go from one addiction to another. So once it wasn't alcohol, it was your W, then when she's gone it's now religion. While religion is a good thing, it is not to be used as another crutch. I'm Roman Catholic, so I know what it's like. But one minute you're talking about God, being a stander, etc. and how you're better than your W for taking the kids to church (and that's what you're doing every time you mention it). Then the next you're backsliding. Go to church because you want to. Period. You don't have to keep mentioning your W when doing so.
Once again Stuck. Nicely put. I totally agree.
Like I mentioned 100x on your thread. Manipulation/Guilt is not going to get your WAW back. You becoming the best Kevin you can be for you is the ONLY chance you got. You're putting an awful lot of pressure on God to deliver. God helps those that help themselves. Just because you like what the priest is telling you doesn't mean that you dont have to do your WORK. Like 25 and CG and MANY other have said their are NO SHORTCUTS.
