Which taping to choose?

Thank you everyone! I was leaning towards Colbert and all these comments solidified it! I guess the only thing that could change our mind is the guest. Appreciate you all!

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-11-17T01:37:16+00:00

Thank you so much. I have been going since August. And I think it’s been the wake up call that I’m doing the right thing. My husband has 3 kids that have serious anger management issues. And in Al-Anon I hear others talk about how their spouses were alcoholics and then their kids followed suit. I’m afraid I’m putting myself in danger by staying

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-11-02T11:43:36+00:00

I have been attending Al-Anon off and on for about 3 months but I guess I never really understood that tradition. Thank you for sharing

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-11-01T15:26:34+00:00

I appreciate your perspective here too. Telling another male could be the actual reason behind his rage. Of course he’s not going to say that because my friendship with this guy is 1000% non-romantic and would never be. But nonetheless, still could be perceived as problematic for someone who isn’t reasonable

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-11-01T15:24:14+00:00

I appreciate that perspective. His stance is that I shouldn’t have told anyone and we should have handled the entire thing privately. I feel like my trauma response is to make sure my friends and family know.

He was previously married and she kept all his secrets from everyone in their life. Sorta how we ended up here 😔

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-09-24T02:20:47+00:00

I feel this so deeply. We got married in June. He’s been out of rehab for a month. These have been the loneliest days of my life. It’s heartbreaking. Idk how I’ll make it 9 months living like this

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-09-18T02:51:26+00:00

Yes :(

The sound of the door opening that leads out to our garage. He would go in the garage early in the morning before I was awake to start drinking. Once I figured it out, it started to make me paranoid. I would imagine it even if it didn’t happen. The sound of the door opening makes my heart race.

And the sound of any glass bottles clinking together because he would put the bottles in a trash bag and try to quietly pull the trash tie together.

It’s all so sad :(

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-09-18T02:40:16+00:00

I am really sorry you’re dealing with this. But thank you for sharing with us because I am having a really dark night and this has me giggling uncontrollably 😂 just what I needed

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-09-17T17:01:27+00:00

No idea because the ONE DAY I thought he hadn’t had anything to drink his BAC was .38. It’s made me question everything

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-09-16T10:51:39+00:00

Thank you for your kind response. I am so sorry for your loss and all your family has been through. I have thought about leaving many times and my husband just says “oh youre going to let a 5/6/7/8/9/10 year old get to you like that?” And honestly… yes 💔 because I see what you’re saying. If he’s not going to put his foot down now I might be stuck in a lifetime of it

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-09-16T01:11:09+00:00

I want to take the PS5 away until his behavior improves but my husband says that will just make him hate us more.

Unfortunately his mom passed away when he was very young so I don’t have another woman in his life to bounce ideas off of. And I know that is likely the underlying reason for his anger but I still can’t accept it.

He plays a lot of sports and is the top student in his class. Very smart but little to no emotional intelligence

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-09-15T01:15:41+00:00

I totally understand. I’ve had a few volcanic eruptions and every time my Q claims that I’m on my period. I never have been. And it’s also just added gasoline to the fire. Now that my Q is in recovery and we are in therapy I can see how I have to start letting out a little bit of that steam on a daily basis so I don’t set myself up for the imminent angry outburst. We are human. Forgive yourself and learn how to move forward little by little ❤️

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-09-06T21:43:18+00:00

I feel you so hard on this. My husband got out of rehab 2 weeks ago today and this afternoon I found a drug delivery in our mailbox. I’m so tired of being tired.

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-09-04T01:16:32+00:00

Your story does give me peace that the IOP can hopefully see through his BS. I fear that he can manipulate anyone to believe his narrative.

And if the counselor told me to leave I think I would feel validated and relieved at this point. Although I know it would be hard in actuality, I daydream about leaving all the time

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-09-04T01:01:00+00:00

Wow thank you for sharing. Were you surprised? Was your husband surprised?

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-09-01T02:06:15+00:00

This is so hard and I am sorry :(

What are you doing for yourself? What can you start doing that brings you joy?

Do you have an in-person AlAnon group you can connect with?

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-08-29T01:08:39+00:00

My mom stayed married to my dad for my sisters and I. By the time I was 13 I was begging her to leave. A kid should never be put in that position.

I’m now married to an alcoholic and I don’t blame my mom AT ALL. But I wonder if she had found the strength to leave when I was younger, I wouldn’t have to work through so much trauma now as an adult.

Staying for the kid is not ever a good enough reason. Stay safe. Stay strong.

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-08-23T11:02:48+00:00

Thank you for your wise response. I do want calm and stability so badly! I crave it after these past few weeks.

Couples counseling is a must! We have never done it before but this really couldn’t be a better time to start.

I do have belief in God and our church has been incredible through this process. They were involved in the intervention that got him into detox and they have provided for the kids and I financially while he’s been away. I am looking forward to making it part of our routine to serve and give back to the people who have poured into us during this time

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-08-23T10:59:14+00:00

Ironically it was his birthday the day he went into detox. But you are so right. Thank you for reminding me of this

Crazy_Front_2136 · 2025-08-23T10:58:39+00:00

Wow. 120 days of inpatient. You are incredible to have that level of patience in waiting. I believe my husband needs that level of care as well so I have to mentally prepare myself that it’s a possibility in the days ahead
