Thanks for posting. It helps validate what I have been through.
Hey, First -- Welcome!
I have heard from AWtf from time-to-time that I may have:
(among many others)
Addictions. (nope, sorry wrong room).
An Eating Disorder. (ummm, no that was AWtf who had to do rehab for that)
And about three times, most recently, a Personality Disorder . . . (hmmm. I guess Therapy must be getting a little close to home. )

So have you checked out Alanon or any other the help available?
