tired
I'm a mother of 4 (three biological one step), student, teacher, and wife of a relasped addict/alcoholic. I'm tired of his actions. I want to be with him, because when he is clean and sober he is an awesome man. Now that he is not the his behavior is driving me up the wall. I'm tired and just want some peace. I was attending al-anon on a regular until my classes begin and kids extracurricular activities begins. I know that I can not do it for him. I don't think he is ready to stop because his actions are showing he is not, but he speaks otherwise. I think I want out but I'm not sure.

Hi tnwife,
Everyone will tell you to listen to his actions, not his words, and I agree!
It doesn't sound like you are ready to make a decision yet about leaving,but coming to SR was a great first step toward figuring it out.
You will find a lot of wonderful support here. Welcome.
