Drinking was actually a large part as to why my marriage was in disarray. However, while active in my addiction, I was oblivious to the fact that my drinking was not only harming my marriage, but every other aspect of my life.
It only took a few weeks sober for me to see how sick I truly was.
Fast forward six months, the reparation of the damage done to my marriage continues and I am very hopeful that my marriage will survive...so long as I remain sober and continue flourishing.
Everything is better sober and I will never drink alcohol again.
