MovingForward1

My ex has dealt with my crap for over a decade. He's heard it all and won't have sympathy to the idea that I'll do better.

How are you doing Movingforward? Withdrawals setting in at all? Sleeping (hopefully)?

I'm here, I didn't pour it out so no withdrawal yet, but it's coming and I dread it. I'm trying to time the worst of it while she's sleeping but it's gotten worse over time and I'm not sure the debilitating effects can be managed in those hours. I'm playing with fire and I know it. If I have to call her dad because I'm in danger I will, but it's last resort.

How old is the child? Can she talk?
I have to agree with ReadyAtLast - you might be better off calling for help now. If you have to call 911, the child may be frightened. They'll have to look for the person to care for her or call social services. This could be child endangerment?
I hope you are doing well.

All judgements, which I expected. She knows what do do in an emergency and my ex is 10 minutes away. I'm not trying to minimize it but I'm here to seek support, not child advice.

Sending you some love and hugs and some prayers too MF

You can get through this; just as you can make it the last time you go through this.

No, no judgement meant on my part. I wasn't sure how old the child was or whether you'd considered this. I wouldn't want to see things get worse for you.
