I had a small breaking point Monday. It was just one glass of wine though I immediately became depressed. My husband and I were originally going through a divorce via his doing and I am only 4 months postpartum with our first baby. We are now abating that divorce and working through things to be better versions for one another and our sweet baby girl. I am currently living with my parents in Texas till we move back to Florida with him at the end of this month and it’s a constant everyday battle almost with my dad. If I am sad or stressed from lack of sleep/help, or from an argument/disagreement with my husband, my dad will result in raged yelling accusing me of drinking. He did this Monday and so I slipped up out of stress and did drink. Idk what I’m looking for exactly but it feels good to also share this with others battling alcohol abuse besides my therapist. Thank you for just reading or any input that’s given. Much love to you all
Definitely sounds like a challenging situation. If you and your husband have not heard about the Five Languages of Love I highly encourage you look for a book or audio book on that. It was a total eye opener to my wife and me.
Thank you for your input! I’ve read up on it in a book called Love and Respect by a pastor I really enjoy. He breaks down the core values woman need and the core values men need to help dissect each disagreement. I appreciate your input! Do you struggle with addiction? I hope all is well!
Alcohol is my struggle but I’m doing better these days for sure.
Same here! I appreciate the words of wisdom
Thank you soo much! It really puts me at ease on knowing how possible it is to be fully sober! I truly appreciate your wisdom and input
Way to check your self and see the worth in putting it down and starting again!! Precious moments keep growing into the great mother you are!!!
