so sorry that yet another percious soul has to live with the effects of alcoholism.

i'll share this with you....my xah was sober for 18 months, but was far from being in recovery.

i have a disease that causes great pain. he brow beat me into letting him handle my meds. which resulted in him taking them himself. i was lucky to have one of my painkillers every other day, which kept me in over 3 months of hellish withdrawal.

why did i let it happen? because he had played so many sick mind games with me, that it was easier to just give in. i was so very sick mentally by then.

one day when he was in the shower, i slipped away and got my scripts refilled and took all of them. only by the grace of god am i alive today.

my xah just switched addictions....from booze to my meds.

i will never become involved with an addict again. myxah was a very sick man. and living with him made me even sicker than he ever dreamed of being.

if i were you i would run to the nearest al-anon meeting and make them the focus of your being right now.

much love to you
