15Weeks

So I haven't posted in a while. Lots have happened since. I fell off the wagon but now I'm back and I'm 15 weeks and I feel good. My wife separated from me because of my drinking and I don't think she's coming back. I can't blame her or anyone this was totally my fault. I had the oppurtunity to stop drinking and never got the proper help. I had to hit rock bottom and I hit it hard. Now it's too late. I've lost the most special person in my life. It hurts but I know picking up won't help. My pschyciatrist put me on antibuse and it's a good thing. I know if I pick up I will get sick and I'm scared. So it helps me not to drink. I go to meeting I go to therapy and I talk to my sponsor. It just hurts how I wrecked everything. My kids love me and I love them it's just so hard not to see them all the time. My fault. I just hope one day I come to peace with everything. Thanks for listening.

Welcome back to SR arthur.

15 weeks sober is fantastic. How much sober time did you have before you relapsed?

Maybe your wife will reconsider when she realizes you are serious about staying sober.

Keep posting. You have lots of advice and experience to share.

Welcome back.
And congrats on 15 weeks.
Never say never about relationships. Once the alcohol is removed for good things have a tendency to heal.

Hard to tell how much clean time I had. It's been on and off for so long. I hope the wife reconsiders. I love her and miss her.
