Rollercoaster of emotions
I'm engaged to an A. I guess I had always known there was an issue with his drinking, but he had convinced me time and time again that it wasn't an issue.
He is currently in medical detox and is set to get out tomorrow. I don't know how I feel about him being out in the free world so soon.
So how did he end up in detox? This past weekend he went on a bender and drank insane amounts of alcohol. Even 12 hours after he stopped drinking he still appeared to be drunk. But now I know he was drinking the entire time while I was asleep. He became belligerent and threatened to kill himself. The cops were called and he was taken to the hospital. His BAL was a .375 and they were surpruised he was still breathing!
He decided to go to detox because he knew he couldn't stop without help from the doctors. I've seen him shake and sweat a few times in the past.
Now he's set to get out tomorrow and I am having all of this anxiety. The trust in our relationship is broken. When I go to work will he drink again? Why is this time going to be different? He's made so many promises and has broken them all.
I'm happy he has taken this step, but all the lies anger me and I'm not sure I can move on and ever trust him again. Any advice on how to deal with this would be much appreciated.
