My husband and I have been married for 22 years. He has just finished a detox and has entered a outpatient program. He has always been a drinker,but the past few years has gotten much worse. He was very good at hiding it. I always knew he drank, but had no idea how much. Was I in denial? I am not feeling much anger right now, but am wondering if it will come out eventually. I grew up with an alcoholic father, which we never were allowed to really talk about. So I'm good at pretending all is well. He was never mean to me or the kids and was not a fall down type of drinker. Feeling very anxious and worried.
Please check out alanon face to face meetings in your community AND ATTEND. Alcoholism is recognized as a disease over which we are powerless. Having lived with this disease we too need a program of recovery-- Alanon is that program
