Frankly, if my spouse had filed for divorce due to my drinking, I would have found an inpatient program and already be there showing through my actions I was serious.

One crummy meeting (maybe) ain't much action, especially given how bad it got.

LC is correct you are really still focusing on him.
I also think your anxiety may really be coming from your occupation of a ringside seat to his shiteshow, where the act changes every few hours.

No longer your circus, no longer your monkey--you are more important now.
thank you, thank you, thank you! I’m moving ahead, he’s begging again. Today, I exercise, get out, therapy, and lawyer. I need the support and you all are angels of mercy! ❤️
