Hi Hoot, I. So glad you posted here. I always find it helpful if I am having a tough time and having urges to drink.

Please remind yourself that drinking will just make everything worse. This too shall pass. You will get through this. Is there anything you can do to rebalance what’s on your plate and care for yourself and your marriage? Maybe you are taking on too much, and some things could wait? Is there any time you can make with your husband for sex? Maybe set a date? It is an important part of marriage, and requires understanding and compromise just like anything else (finances, parenting, etc). If the issue is not addressed, resentment is going to set in on both sides. Are there other underlying issues in your marriage? Perhaps a therapist could help?

Stay strong and keep posting for support!
