Well done. Addressing the problem means you are half way there already. the rest depends on your determination - good luck.





And I am somewhat of an expert. I'm the first Douglas in six generations not to be an alcoholic. After seeing what I've seen, I decided not to go that way in life.

No doubt you have heard that it gets easier and I can tell you, definitely, that it does.

Hang in there and enjoy your journey, wherever it leads you.

(however it works out between you two..)

The other day working in the basement I heard the floors creak from the dog walking around.
With a senior moment I thought "Oh good the ex is home".
Then I thought "naaah"

Scott, I too wish you well. Wise words from wd and the truth from Bob. Get yourself a good (male) sponsor and work the program. No "13" stepping the ladies either

Seeing a addiction therapist and Dr.

Yes legal separation "is a thing" (but not necessary).

We are talking and seeing each other occasionally but she wants to see months of sobriety instead of days before she will consider taking me back.

Speaking of great people you guys have been super supportive and I really appreciate the kind words, PM's, phone numbers sent my way.

Carry on...

I love you guys!
Good work, pullin for ya.

You have heard the phrase, one step at a time. Just keep at it, and stay sober. Sounds easy, but like sticking with a diet, it is not easy. We are pulling for you.
