Hi SC,

Your situation sounds familiar. I was also productive but drinking daily. So productive that W really didn't see it as a huge problem and blamed my emotional detachment and anger on my attitude towards our marriage. After BD, I changed and she couldn't believe it, saw it as manipulation and Mr. FixIt comes to the rescue. Finally, at 90 days of sobriety she acknowledged my efforts with a card and now sees my problem/challenge for what it is. Doesn't mean that she has changed her mind towards me, but now she is paying attention to my recovery for the first time. Be as patient as you can.
