He's frustrated with my "quit dates" my "promises" and my behavior when I don't keep those promises. I don't blame him for his lack of empathy, but I really wish he had a little more understanding of how hard this commitment really is. Anyhoo, I'm setting my quit date for Monday April 18th. I've been drinking on and off...weeks on, weeks off. So I know I can quit on my own. Having a few drinks tonight. Less tomorrow. And then it's go time! ...for the hundredth time. But I really freaking want this... So badly........
You know, my husband got tired of my promises and relapses too.
I don't blame him--this thing almost cost me my marriage
How are you changing your plan from before since it hasn't worked so far?
Still drinking today sends a message you still aren't ready from what I can see.

I had to really up my game to get it done at all costs.
