It sounds like your wife might have lost control of her drinking. Her comments certainly sound like alcoholic declarations to me.

You are at risk of becoming more focused on her behaviors than on your sobriety. Your sobriety will save your life and you know that.

I am not an addict, but I have a history of codependency and I know what it is to become obsessed with someone's moods and behaviors and to feel lonely in a relationship in which alcohol is the constant theme. But my codependency was not nearly as life-threatening as yours could be.

For your own good and to honor your own life, I would attend as many 12 Step meetings as possible every week. This is a dangerous time for you. And if you don't have a sponsor, I suggest you get one and really work the Steps. The friendship and the support will do wonders.
