signed divorce papers last week
 
I finally found the courage to leave my alcoholic husband for good about 2 months ago. I signed the divorce papers last week.

I have a great counselor and a strong support group, but the bad days still sneak up on me. My biggest challenge right now is ANGER...


I'm angry with my ex...because he'd rather be with that bottle than with me. I know it's the disease making the choice (not him) but it still hurts.

I'm angry with the universe...for wiring my brain in such a way that I'm only attracted to unhealthy people.

I'm angry at people who don't have to deal with this challenge.

I'm angry with myself, for trying to find bread at the hardware store...again, and again, and again.


I know I'm doing the right thing, but why does it have to be so painful???
