7 months sober and I caved. Husband is an alcoholic but “the fun type”. Im just super depressed. I hate my life. I work to take care of people but don’t care about my own health anymore. Married 25 years and he couldn’t care less about me as long as he’s happy. Our kids are 20 and 23. They think he’s the best. It hurts. A lot.

Mindy, I agree that is a very challenging situation. But you gotta save yourself!
I had to make my sobriety my number one priority in life. Over finance, romance and even family! Once I did, the good life opened up and keeps unfolding in beautiful ways💗
I’m here if you want to talk

Try saying this to yourself everyday: "I love you. I believe in you. I am Proud of you. I forgive you. 
It has helped me tremendously 🫶🏾

Thank you so much Melvinia. I need to learn to love myself. I wake up every morning and beat myself up in my mind, think about all my failures and pray for change and strength. I know I’m not a bad person yet I tend to go to a dark place and it’s hard. I’m my own worst enemy.

Do whatever is best for you. Tell your husband to support you or GTFO

I know. I’m still struggling and hating myself. It really sucks.
Seems like you’re really overwhelmed. That’s what happens when someone gives and gives. You’ve been holding it down for the whole family.
I’m so glad you posted. You deserve real support too. Keep showing up here. If there’s anything I’d say is start a self love journey, it’s there you’ll find your worth. Dm anytime
