Just need a boost.
 
Hi everyone. I guess I just need a little kindness right now. My AH is normally drunk every day with occasional binges that go on for 3-4 days. He's on one of those now. Drinking till passing out, waking up and drinking again until passing out. I wait for the rages that might or might not come. It is mentally exhausting and makes me weary. I distance myself as much as possible. It is sooo tiring..........Thanks for listening.

Hey Elaine,
Hugs and a big boost to you. This stuff is very draining.
Can you get out and do something that's all about you, instead of waiting for the rages to come?
Sending some light your way,
Gabe

Don't sit around and watch him destroy himself. My AH is drinking right now and I'm on my way to the movies. It's okay to do things for yourself. I'm sick of watching him and listening to his rages. He just had a rage and I told him to shut up or I would call the police and have him removed. That quieted him for a while, but I'm not sticking around. Hopefully he'll be passed out by time I get home. Take care of you. Forget about the drunk!

Thanks you guys! I loved the 'forget about the drunk!' Laughing is good.
