I might be back. I might not.

But for someone to push their own experience and taint me with it doesn't sit well.

For those who genuinely want to save their marriages I wish you the best and I'm off on my self discovery.

Love to all.

I’m sorry I negatively effected you the way I have. I took what you said at face value. You have a drinking issue and your father attempted suicide and didn’t breath for 15 mins. I commend you for being able to perform CPR for 15 mins. That’s absolutely exhausting, and I can’t imagine how you felt or how you handled it physically or mentally. Most professionals can’t do it.

I’m sorry I’m commenting again, but I hate to see you leave because of one poster (me). If I chose that path I’d be lost. This community is fantastic and supportive at its core.

I wish you nothing but the best, but I will say and would continue to say to anyone, drinking in such a horrible situation may make you feel better temporarily but it’s nothing but an avenue of pain and misery. And I would venture to guess deep down you know it, and the fact you continue to drink shows you need professional help.

I wish you nothing but the best. And I hope you get IC that helps you.

Good luck good sir.
