Thank you all I'm scared right now. He is I'm a very bad place. He's got to have some kind of psychological problem going on. He called me at work and said he was feeling a seizure coming on...he could barely talk, sounded so drunk. The old me would have been so worried and rushed to his side, but all I did was offer to call him an ambulance and then said I had to go and hung up. He sounds lost, and delusional. I can't rescue him anymore. All I'm doing is focusing on the kids and keeping them away from it.

If he was able to call you, he can also call for help too.

So happy that you and the boys are safe and free!!

His call to you sounds like a manipulative ploy to pull you back.

They will manipulate that is for sure. I agree, it was a ploy. At some point he is going to have to decide for his own self if he is going to recover or not. Does he want that or not. It is for him to decide and there is not a single thing you can do to change that.

It is hard but you are doing this, don't let yourself be manipulated.

God Bless!

I would block his number and file a police report about his strangling you. You can't keep your kids from him legally unless you have a RO. I don't want to see him have a way to allege you're keeping the kids from him...

He abused you and you have a right to be protected. Can you file for a RO.

His calling you is a ploy for sympathy. My xAH did that non stop throughout our marriage.

I might suggest next time that you just go ahead and call 911 I doubt he is going to tell you to. Might be the best thing for him to detox - would also be good for you to move ahead with documentation of what you have been dealing with.
