She doesn't want to trigger me but she has had a problem and has a hard time accepting that. I've learned that's her sobriety and it's separate from mine. I can be support her, but have made it clear I have to be sober or I will die.

I'm feeling pressure to go so I will. As the big book says trying to alter or avoid the drinking lifestyle is doomed to fail. I think I should confront the experience and being a 1 car family (mine was repossessed) i have a plan to leave if it gets crazy.
