Winning back trust can take some time. How I did it was one moment at a time.
Was separated, filed for divorce. Before the waiting period (90 days) was over, we stopped the divorce and celibrated our 25th together the very next month.
There is always hope.
I found my answers in the bible and how the 12 steps mirror the wisdom of the bible, the 12 steps can get you there as well.
Win back the trust one moment at a time. Deal with the addiction one moment at a time if need be.
If it takes a year to win back the trust... from what I have found in my life... it is well worth the time and effort. I don't ever want to loss that trust again.
For me the steps and the bible are a way of life that works.
Alcohol was my DOC, still the problems are alike though.
