Unhappy Am I mad?

I'm not sure I'm in the right place to talk about these things and I've never been on a forum before. I really have no one to talk to and I just feel so alone right now.
I'm living in a house of madness and am starting to succom to the allure of this insanity!
I live with an alcoholic, who is in denial, that I love dearly and deeply. I'm at my wits end yet I can't seem to leave.
I've searched google high and low but always walk away feeling defeated. I'm at a loss. Help?

Welcome, ridiculous, to SR. This is a great place for support, understanding and encouragement.

Newcomers is a great forum; there is also a Frends & Families forum.

Glad you found SR.

Welcome to the family. It's not easy living with an active alcoholic. You have to decide how much of their behavior you will tolerate. I'd suggest looking at the friends and family forum for more insight.

Welcome ridiculous

when you say 'beginning to succumb to the lure of his insanity' does that mean you're drinking too?
