The first step.

Hi, my name is Sadie, and i am engaged to an alcoholic.
It has gotten to the stage now where i wake up daily and the emotions hit me, knowing he has hidden bottles and lied to me, (the stupid thing is i go looking for them and 50% of the time i find them or a receipt proving my suspicions and knowing its going to happen again when i go to work, knowing its pointless to challenge him about it, as many times in the past this has happened, and he always says he will change but its never stuck.
I am going to book an appointment to see my GP and try to arrange counselling because i cannot take this much more.
I am reaching out because i cannot go through this alone anymore.
I need help.

Hi and welcome.

As SB1 suggests F&F has good support within this site, also in your living area Al-Anon is extremely helpful with many years of experiences with what your going through. You may not like what all you hear but they are dead on. I say lovingly they are the black belt finest who many in AA call the enemy camp but have great results for the members.

BE WELL

As frustrating and sad as it may seem, the only person's behavior you can change is your own.

Head on over to the Friend's and Families section of this site.
