Roddy

We have been 15 days sober, but last night she went to a friends house and came home a little too happy. I can recognize it when she is under the influence. She drank over a pint of vodka a day for a year at least. I didn't confront her. How much will that set her back?

You will know if she drinks today/tonight.

Maybe talk with her?

I will talk to her this morning. We are also trying to recover from a break-up and things are a little sensitive around here. If she doesn't quit it will kill her. I just hope this doesn't mean she is starting over.

I know that Al-Anon IS a big help for many of us if we accept it's help.

She admitted drinking most of a half pint on the way home. Now she feels like a failure. Is her craving going to go way up at this point?

Congratulations on your 15 days! Yours is the first post I've ever read when someone described "we" are getting sober.
It's fantastic that the two of you quit together, but keep in mind that maybe only one of you will stay that way. Your own sobriety is the only one you can truly concentrate on, it's the only one you can work on and take responsibility for.
She has her own journey -
as someone just suggested in a previous post, alanon is a great help. We can be recovering alcoholics AND codependent as well.
