I see - I did go back and look at one of your recent posts, living with a high functioning alcoholic is so hard, so frustrating.
I've told my husband to move out several times, and he just ends up in the guest room and continues his behavior. Which is what led me to where I am now. Back in my home town, renting an air bnb, trying to figure out where in the heck we will be after this. Back home with him because he's in AA and committed to doing better? I'm just not sure 2.5 weeks is enough time, and he may just be stringing me along anyway. He's at least admitted to having an alcohol dependency a couple of times now. Maybe he really does want help, but of course with the caveat that he wants to still be able to drink further in the future once he learns to control it.

Sometimes when I write down my thoughts I wonder if this is really my reality. It doesn't feel real, I just want to be home with him and our family. Without constantly worrying about his level of drinking.
