My exH called me a drunk so many times it ceased to affect me...until I finally agreed with him. We aren't married any longer, but get along (for the most part) better now than we ever have. He's very proud of my recovery, and lets me know that.
You know why? Cause once I found sobriety I found respect for myself, therefore I find that I am treated with respect from other people.
It's good that you are talking with your doctors. They can help!
