Trying to move on


Hi everyone. I am trying to move on with my life with my children, but my AH just keeps coming back.  He relapses, I kick him out, then he comes back.  I am working on my legal and financial issues to protect myself and my kids, but it is so hard to maintain my sanity when he is physically near me.  He and I don't even talk anymore. it is total insanity...but why would he leave....he doesn't have a job or money and here he has his needs met.  I cannot wait until this is all over.  I just keep telling myself that it will get better and soon I will be through with him and his disease.

Hugs imom, I can sooooo relate except the part about not working. Now that the crisis is over he's not calling. He did come for dinner a couple times last week. The kids both have had birthdays and them Easter. I'm doing better, even with the contact. Ironically, I don't think he realizes I'm relieved he's not coming around. I really feel sorry for him actually, because how pathetic and predictable. Hang in there, the hardest person to get rid of is an active addict. You will get there it takes time. Hugs P :)

Imom, read the merrygoround called denial. It has helped me understand the dynamics in play. I can't get off either and it's bad. Take care.x
