After 18 long months of trying to help her get better and support her recovery I have been to my first ala-non meeting this week and learnt that Step 1. I am powerless over alcohol.
You could not save her, cure her, or reason with her when you were living with her. You are not that powerful. None of us are.
Putting yourself and your son back into the front row seats of her daily drama will not save her, cure her or control her behavior. It will only bring pain and suffering to yourself, your son and your husband.
It is a tough choice to make, but you have made the healthy choice.
