Hi

 

I am the wife of an alcoholic who is not drinking yet very abusive.

Its one of those days, got yelled at at the end of a long tiring day at work. Angry hurting and manipulating husband. Somehow I ahve loved him. Somehow I still do.

Yet this is one of thsoe days. Trying to meet my demands at work. Keep my health and keep my emotional peace.

Thanks for giving me this space. I needed to reach out today.

 

I have gotten the Alanon 12 steps book. I am keen to work with a sponsor, even online, to work the steps with. Maybe I could email them the answer and have a quick call or an email back every week to progress through the steps?

I need healing and changes in me, to handle what my higher pwoer has lent for me to work with today.

peace and hugs

S.

Welcome resilentsparks

I am glad that you found us and shared your heart. Living wth this dreadful disease of alcoholism ,we do need a program for our own recovery. 

Alanon Face to Face meetings,  help to break the isolation and offer support, as we learn new constructive tools to live by were vital to my recovery. You can find the hotline number in the white pages. 

The steps, a sponsor, the simple slogans of Live one day at a time focused on yourself and Act do not react are powerful tool to live by.

We have on line meetings here as well so ---Please keep coming back
