Well since yesterday didn't go so well I just had to share this. My Abfsober left a little while ago. I don't know but maybe he is going to an AA meeting. He has not been to one in a while. If he is going, I'm guessing he did drink yesterday but even if he did not, I am feeling some relief. Meetings have always been good for him, saying he has always come home in a better mood after a meeting.

I am feeling my serenity again at the moment and it feels good. I know that his hp is taking care of him, it is not my job and I can not worry about him.

I'm glad you are feeling better today. It really doesn't matter where he is going, does it. What matters is focusing on you and taking care of yourself. Are you going to your meetings? Talking to your sponsor? They are good for you.


Wishing you some serenity.

In recovery,

Meetings have always been good for him ?? hmmmmmmmmm
Maybe they would help u with days like yesterday ,time to go back and stay this time . food for thought.?  Our program does not work part time this is a program for living , for making my life better so that in tough times i don't go down with the next crisis , you are in a relationship with an A sober or not , as a dear friend of mine says this is called alcoholism not alcohol wasm . be good to yourself buick go back for you .

I think meetings are good for most people.  Getting the focus off him is so so critical. I also know personally it is so so hard to do.  I have to work really hard not to be over involved in other's lives.

Well he came home with a yellow chip last night. Whatever happened Saturday, who knows. He did go back to a meeting, and it should be on my to do list too. You guys are right, time to get back on track.

Btw. I will be divorced next month, I can't wait. smile.gif It has been 7 years of separation. So it's about time.
