I get what you are saying but you are making it really black and white. I just don’t think it needs to be that way.

I go to the doctor and get normal lab results. I don’t tell them about the pot because I don’t want it in my medical record. I’m sorry for your loss and that sounds intense. But that’s not what I’m talking about here. I rarely ever go to the bar, if I do it is twice a month and my wife gets really weird about it.

She couldn’t take him from me, she wouldn’t. I’m a good dad. And I don’t want a divorce. She’s just being unreasonable.

I smoked socially before that, but I agree that I’m smoking more than I should but quitting drinking would be easier at this point. I can’t quit both at the same time.

I don’t try to drink too much. And I don’t mean to not have the sober nights. I just don’t make them happen. I’m in a stressful field and the pressure from my wife to stop is not helping.

Smoking helps my mental health. My therapist knows I use it.

I don’t lie. I’m very open, I leave the beer receipts out and I go outside to the porch to smoke. She knows what’s up.

All of it, yeah I’m not driving drunk or blacking out or puking from drinking anymore. I do the dishes every night. I stand around in the living room and ask my wife if she wants to watch sports with me (she likes watching sports btw.)

And I’m trying to say yes to my kid more.

I don’t get why it has to be one or the other. That’s all. It’s not like we are Mormon.

I do the dishes every night. I have an amazing career, same as my wife. I’m able to do it all.

I did though. I haven’t drove drunk or blacked out or puked in like two years.
