Relapsed. F'd up again

Im so upset with myself. I went to rehab last April and within 60 days broke down and drank. Still hiding the drinking from the wife but she is starting to suspect. Don't know what to do. Sick of this disease.

You do know what to do: Be Honest with her. You have to be. Get back into treatment if you need to and it sounds like you do. I've been there twice and I'll go back again if I need to. I'm winning the war! It sounds like you are drinking and cannot stop and who knows what the grand finale will be? You know it's coming. It always happens - something terrible is going to happen if you keep drinking.

Get to a meeting immediately. Get phone numbers. Humble yourself enough to let others help you right now as booze is kicking your butt! It's kicked a lot of people's butts! Keep posting. I will pray for you when we have the moment of silence for the alcoholic who still suffers. Because you are suffering. It's awful and doesn't have to be this way.

Fight! Fight! Fight!

welcome back Lost

You know you, and your life, need to change.

The longer you put that off the harder it will be and, sadly you like to lose the things most important to you.

be smarter than me - don;t put off action - whether it be seeing your Dr, telling your wife, going to AA or some other group, or even looking into rehab again - break the circle...do something.

You'll look back and be so glad you did -
you deserve better

Welcome, friend. I recommend reading some of the threads here. We've all felt hopeless and desperate. You're not the only one.

She doesn't suspect, she knows. She just doesn't know what to do about it.

Yeah, I think the more you try to keep it a secret, the worse it's going to get. I hope you can turn this around.

Have you thought about how bad it got the last time? I don't know how it was for you, but I relapsed and the things that brought me back were getting honest with everyone and knowing that I did NOT WANT TO LOSE the things that I worked so hard for.

Is it really worth it? My best to you.
