I am the biggest idiot on the face of the Earth
I am so freaking Mad I Could Just Scream!
Living with a wife who does not see anything wrong with
Drinking a 6-12 pack a day and sleeping all day every day.
No matter how many great things happen there is no
Chance she is ever will realize what she is missing. As for those AA meetings
I think when she goes to tell me how fing worthless.
What a f ing mess my son 9 has a mother who would rather sleep then
Spend time with him. And it is all my fault! She will protect that dam alcohol
And loves it more than me. If I leave the worthless hag then its my fault.
For 9 years straight how could anyone enjoy drinking so much
That can she choose a beer before her family
So Now you have head from the biggest idiot on the face
Of the earth.

Alcoholism is a family disease. You are not going to fix your wife. Alanon is a wonderful resource for people who have an active alcoholic in their live's. They will teach you how to take care of you while dealing with her.
It will be the last place your wife will want you to go because you will learn about the tricks, lies, and schemes we alcoholics use to continue drinking

I'm sorry your wife chooses alcohol over the family.
When I was drinking I did the same. It took me a while to realize the damage I was doing. I'd suggest you get support for yourself. AlAnon would be good, as is the friends and family forum suggested above. Be good to yourself. You deserve better.

I'm sorry for what you are going through. Alcoholism is a wretched disease that can destroy both the individual and everyone around them - as you are unfortunately seeing first hand. I am single and don't have kids but when I was drinking I closed myself in entirely. I cut out my family and friends and made drinking my number one priority. It took me wanting to quit for it to finally happen. I think that's the hardest part for someone dealing with an alcoholic in their lives. There really isn't anything you can do to make them stop. It has to come from within the alcoholic. As others have said, definitely check out the Friends and Family of Alcoholics - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information section and Alanon for support if possible.

Well, if loving an alcoholic makes you the biggest idiot on the planet, there is a whole forum for you to join that is full of fellow idiots. Only over there, we don't consider ourselves idiots, mostly. We like the term "human beings" instead. It is a broader category that includes all the good things about our loved ones, too.
I know anger is behind your posts, and trust me, we've all felt that too.

hi lost hope. I know exactly what you mean word for word. My mom is an alcoholic and I live with her still. And yes it is all MY fault somehow. Seek to get your son into preteen alanon if there is one in your area. I wish I would've had that when I was 8/9 instead I turned into an alcoholic myself having my first drink/drunk at 9 years old. Be the guardian for your son because I am sure he is in as much pain as you. You too can be the light in each others life and hopefully mom will come around one day. You may need to leave for the safety and serenity of your son and you in the meantime. God bless you.
