Thanks for sharing this Chickenman. I've got a little over 2 1/2 years myself. I have been in and out of recovery since 85. I don't smoke either, because if I do I may end up in the bar again. I've tried to "Control" things in the past and just smoke and well....it didn't work out that well for me. All of my sober friends think I am crazy for growing, but honestly it is my ZEN. I LOVE being in the garden and I LOVE the fact that the fruits of my labor are enjoyed.
One Day at a Time my brother!
As usual, I love you man. Great post and I am glad it got the bump. I quit drinking for a year and a half and now am back at drinking beer all the time. Lame but rather enjoyable while it lasts. We are each free but responsible for our choices. Moderation is the key with anything and if you can't do that then you best make a change. Thanks man. Great words from you always.
For the past 10+ years my marriage has been going down hill. My wife blamed her problems on menopause. When I got insuranceI sent her to the Dr for tests but she quit going after the 3rd appt. It finally dawned on me recently that she is a lying, sneaky drunk and this is whats really been the root cause of all our problems. She is still in denial and still functional but has started going on serious drunks on her days off. She is very good at hiding the drinking but the 24 hours in bed afterwards is a dead give away. I'm at the end of my rope and don't have a clue what to do. My daughters apparently realized what was up before I did. Wish they would have said something to me sooner. All I want now is out!
I feel for you RMB's I am in the same situation. Keep on thing in mind, alcoholism is a sickness and she probably can't help herself. You sure have been together a long time to just want out. If you still have any feelings for her she can get better with support. I agree on hiding it, I never see my wife take a drink, she is all of a sudden to fucked up to walk. Kind of a dead give a way.For the past 10+ years my marriage has been going down hill. My wife blamed her problems on menopause.
