I almost Lost My Husband to Alcohol

A week ago Saturday my husband almost died due to alcohol consumption. He was in the hospital for 5 days and I don’t think I’ve ever been so scared. Thank God he will make a full recovery…as long as he doesn’t consume any alcohol. I’m here because I want to support him. Because I’d rather be alcohol free than see him die. Because I need to survive this too.

Despite what we went through I’m still struggling to quit and I feel like that’s so messed up. I can’t believe alcohol still has a hold on me despite what happened. I’m glad I found this community. I need you all!

Hang in there Laura….. attend meetings and once your husband has the ability he can go with too. :pray:

Checkout the book quit drinking without willpower, it's helped me at times. When I remember that the benefits of alcohol are all illusions I sure don't want that poison in me.

That kind of scare can shake definitely rock you to the core. Grateful he’s here. We’re here with you
