This is just how I was once I sobered up.
I love my wife with all my heart, I know her and the kids went through total hell and a lot of emberasement due to me being a drunk.
The day I got out of de-tox and got home my number one priority was my sobriety, number 2 priority was starting to try and repair all of the damage I had done to my wife and my kids.
The last thing I wanted to do was in any way be sober and be the a-hole I was when I was drinking.
If my wife asked me to do anything I was on it with a smile on my face!
If one of my kids wanted to do something within reason I was all for it.
The last thing I would have done after my 6th day sober was to do any thing that would have reminded them of how I was drinking or to hurt them in any way.
The last thing I would have done was hurt them.
But once again that is this drunk, other drunks I guess are different.
