My whole world is falling apart but at least my body is healing and I'm stronger.

Maybe all these years of drinking destroyed my marriage, maybe it was already broken and I didn't see it because I was drinking...I don't know. I'll try to leave the past behind today and focus on healing and being sober right here right now...
Patricia, I am sorry you are going through this with your husband. You are worth all respect for staying sober through this time! You are so strong!

I hope you and your husband with time can work something out that will make the both of you feel happier. I don't think you should think too much about what came first - the marriage problems or your drinking. For me, in similar situations I often tend to think it was a little bit of both, maybe a vicious circle.

The good thing is that you have taken alcohol from the picture. No matter what happens with you that is the basis for a good future for you! I'm sure it will work out alright!
