But cleared the air with my boyfriend
Told him how much I used to drink...the hiding of bottles mm. He wants me to get help. And I will. There is an aa meeting on Friday. And will try to find a councelor. I need live support as well as keeping coming here. Feel like crap but will pick myself up..

Yes you will Laura. You sound determined. I'm glad you're here and also seeking additional support. You can turn this all around.

Thanks guys! I am having a hard time undersranding that my bf just doesn't leave. He claims to love me. I really don't like myself right now. How could he? And these thoughts just add to the anxiety and makes me wanna drink
Which of course helps nothing.

maybe because he's seen the Light in you when you've been healthy and doesn't want to lose that. Now, it's your job to find that Light again within and only you can do it, with the added bonus of having someone beside you to love and support you. Count your blessings.

You are not your addiction Laura - sounds like your bf knows that
Do follow through with your plans - you'll feel better with a little sober time under you

What amazes me is how many people post who have husbands who had no idea they even drank... Id hide it for a bit and then somehow slip up or have too much to hide. This is infathomable to me... Now opiates.. Those I can hide but not alcohol, not for long.

You are fortunate you are smart enough to tell him about it and ask him if you should get help... Because unlike you, I didn't offer and my husband requested and then demanded I get help. I wish I would have done something when the information and treatment was still 'optional'. Would have saved me a lot of humiliation when I was trapped by those I care about. Good for you!
