Feelings of guilt/regret after quitting
Hi all, just looking for suggestions or advice on how to see things clearer, since I stopped drinking (10 yrs drinking), just recently stopped 3 months ago, I have these strong feelings of remorse, guilt, shame. I feel I wasted my wifes time, my children.
I took that time away from them and I cant ever give it back to them, I feel terrible, we fight more it seems, she brings it up and throws it in my face that I drank so much and always put her to the side, which is true...
I feel lost....I want to "fix" everything, I want to be the perfect man for her, the perfect dad, I cant believe I clouded myself with alcohol and live for so long that way.
I still have my family but that can change if I don't get myself together, if anyone has gone thru this by all means I hope you reply. Thank you.
