New here!
Hi everyone ,
I am brand new to this site. I am here because my husband is an alcoholic.
Just getting started with my own admissions to co-dependency because of it, and beginning the learning process to heal myself.
We have been trying to get my husband into treatment, and I thought he was ready, but he backed out with a couple of excuses. Now I'm getting my anger back under control so I can decide what I need to do next.
Wanted to say a quick hi for now, and I'll post more on my story at a later time.

Hi DLC, and welcome to SR. I'm a codie as well as a recovering alcoholic. You'll find plenty of help in the F&F forum, I look forward to hearing more from you there.

Thank you everyone for your warm welcome!
As a side note, I wanted to let everyone know as well, my AH is looking at SMART Recovery. I wanted to find a place where I can interact and ask questions where I can get varying opinions and input. I spent several hours last night perusing and reading various posts. Feeling a bit overwhelmed and have been that way for quite some time. I really want to dig out and start feeling better. I need to do it for me and for my 5YO DD.
We are in a tough place right now and I am making some decision about what is next. I'll be posting and asking for advice.
Thanks again everyone!
