I love love love love not having an alcoholic in my home.

The stink, the stress, the tension, the eggshells, the chaos. All gone.

I go out and come home and breathe in the pure peace, calm, quiet, clean orderly home I have.

And, most importantly which I didn't realise until he was gone, the drain on my self esteem! The lack of self respect it caused me. I could not work properly on my own issues of codependency and healing my childhood trauma until I lived on my own. You need the space and calm to dig deep to work on changing why you are attracted to an alcoholic/addict/narc in the first place. Once healed you can then move on to a healthy life making healthy choices.

Boot his arse out.
