So sorry for the news about your husband. A terrible shock, I'm sure.
I was married once, to an alcoholic, who smoked pot. It lasted about 10 years.
Off and on. More off than on, cause I couldn't keep him at home. lol
That was 17 years ago. Today, it's my son.
He turned 26 today. He's sober for today, thank God.
Yet, what brought me here was my need to control his situation and fix him.
I was wracked with guilt. I was his mom. How could I let this happen?
Thank God for soberrecovery, all the people here, Melodie Beattie, and many others,
who have walked the recovery path from codependency.
You'll learn that later. lol
Your really in a great place here and I suggest you start going to alanon meetings, too. The more you know, the better your gonna start feelin'.
Sending prayers, hugs, and support, out to you and your family. I pray that your husband finds a path to sobriety soon. For now, focus on you and your children.
Let your HP (Higher Power) take care of your hubby.
Keep comin' back and I'm glad we're here together.
A new sr friend,
