One More Reason

To not drink. Today while my wife was cleaning the guest room she found a bottle of vodka I must've left behind in my drunken stupor. She is furious naturally and I don't blame her. All I can do is show her I'm tryin to change. Ughhhh I'm so sick of the stupidity booze brought out in me. I haven't drank in nearly 3 weeks and am feeling strong but at the same time feel so crappy for putting doubts in my wife's mind. All I can do is prove myself over time and earn back the trust. Man, drinking did really bring out the dummy in me.

Be very proud of your three weeks sober. And, I know that your wife will see the changes in you too.

As long as you stay sober, the trust will come back eventually MF...give it a little time

Your actions will speak for themselves. We can't go back and undo anything we've done, so keep going forward in truth and sobriety. Congrats on three weeks, that's stupendous.

Keep moving forward, MF; there's nothing like new behavior to make people forget about old behavior. Your wife will eventually see just how committed you are to sobriety.

Three weeks is excellent! Good for you. My husband used to find bottles and I would be furious...me! The alcoholic! I agree with the others who said you will earn back her trust in time. Stay the course and keep going strong.

I've been in your shoes! For months after quitting, my husband and I would find "evidence" about the house. Now we just laugh at it, but it took awhile. Hang in there. As others have said, your actions will clear the air eventually.
