I have been working so much, that today was the first day after few days of not being here with my family supporter. My husband relapse four weeks straight with drinking after being sober for two and half year. The last time that I think of that he has told me was the firs day he came home and retired from the navy in 2006 and drank his life away for weeks and month at a all the time and then just stopped for five years straight and then start really hard again four weeks ago again.
I have been going thru therapy and my face to face meeting, but he was sober for one whole week straight and it was great to have him and we were communicating but last night he did not come home and today has not been home because he is drinking again. I have alot of support from my patients and my therapist and tell me how much they admire me to be so strong and the things I have gone thru with him. But I have to say that I love being alone at home with my kids(german shepherds) lol Im very happy and relax to be home alone with my kids and dont give into his games and lies and excuses because Im doing for me!
yes, being alone and choosing my own peace is also a thing I love. Enjoy that time with you, for it gives you lots of room to be connected with your inner voice. To let you be who you really are. I know at times it feels sad to have to be separated from the one we choose to love, but I found out that hit is better than to be separated from my Self. I think the great thing detachment brings, is the act and sense of self-worth and self-care. keep the focus, you are important, you are strong, you are beautiful.
in support
