End of a relationship

My marriage of 20 years is over now. It was rocky and on the verge of ending a couple weeks ago but now it’s definitely over. I wish her the best but the things she said to me and the way she’s been treating me has me feeling so down . She’s still in active addiction and been lying about a lot. All I’m asking for is prayers for her to find her way, meanwhile I’ll find mine without her since she said she’s done with me. I need strength now more than ever.

Good luck dude and hope you’re balanced when you talk to her and figure things out.

Yeah she’s not interested in talking to me about anything, not even the bills that we’re supposed to be working together on. I’m on my own…

I was in a same situation minus the addiction. I knew I had to burn it all down in order to leave a couple years now after the divorce and she is still the same. It’s a long road but it’s worth it

I’m sorry you are struggling. Try to look at is as a fresh start and a new beginning. In recovery, we have to let go of the things that no longer serve us.

I'm going through something similar. I just have to take care of my side of the street and rebuild my life alongside God. Chores, bills, property, etc are all things I can take care of myself so that my security is not in the hands of a person who is also sick. Just take it one day at a time and work with a sponsor and go to meetings.

If you're on your own, be on your own. You'll ever make it with active addiction in your life.

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change.

Courage to change the things I can.

And the wisdom to know the difference.

The only thing you can do Brandon is continue working on yourself and allowing God to make the changes in you.

We can't change or control people but we can control how we react to other people. Whatever you're feeling, it's not bad enough to drink or use.
