Stregth/An Alcoholic Spouse

03/11/2010 2:50 am

Today is the first day in 3 weeks that I finally am beginning to feel my strength again. I am a very strong, firm and on the right track person, or so I thought. My spouse is a closet alcohlic, and has been since I married him. It has been 6.5 years now and finally I found the strength in my self to say I can not do this any more. I needed find myself again. Sometimes, when you are caring for someone who is bringing you down you loose yourself. When you no longer know who you are, that is when you have to step back and evaluate what this is doing to your life, to you as a person, and make a hard and fast decision. What do I need to do for myself for the rest of my life. I did that for myself today. I need to move on, no matter how bad I feel for him, for his illness for his life, I only have me to account for in the end. Today, I move forward for me!
