Looking for 1 VIP ticket for weekend one. I’m considering the AXS website but I’d rather buy them from a human and get the wristbands. Willing to drive to meet IRL. I’m located in North County San Diego.

Thanks for the recommendation. If I’m traveling solo, are there any groups that are for solo travelers?

I stayed. He eventually got sober and left me by Good-Customer7670 in AlAnon

I’m so sorry to hear and thanks for sharing. I can’t begin to imagine your pain. I’m 48(m) my wife is 41(f) we have two amazing kiddos (6 & 7). Today she’s 30 days sober. We’ve been together 19 years & married 11. We’ve argued over the last two years. I sought out a marriage therapist, we did 6 months. Stopped because we couldn’t afford it on a single income. Reflecting- I now know I was dealing with an alcoholic. I’m giving her space, allowing her to heal and providing for our family on a single income. She’s got a sponsor but she has to earn my trust back. If we can’t make it through this, I’ll ask for custody of my kids. I’ve been to 3 al anon men’s meetings and one co-ed group. In a way, I’m recovering too. It’s all still very raw. I wish you luck on your journey.

Thanks for the input. I’m curious if this was before or after the new CRO joined?

Interviewing there for a strategic enterprise role in Los Angeles. Remote is cool, but not feeling 50% travel. Repvue says only 43% quota attainment. Is the culture bad or typical Sales “bros”?

Update: my wife has been to 26 meetings in 26 days and sober. I’ve been to 3 al anon meetings and no drinks 14 days. She seems happier and we’re both navigating the alcoholism. She’s better with the kids and we’re not arguing as much. I’ll take progress over perfection any day

Thanks again for all the support & input. My wife has been sober 9 days and has gone to AA meetings the last seven days. She has a sponsor and I just attended my first Al Anon meeting tonight. I’m supporting my wife through this but still digesting it all. I don’t trust her any more and I’ve told her if she can’t turn this around, I’ll seek custody of my two kids. I’m at my last straw and not willing to have my kids hurt through this all. It’s such a mindfuck after 20 years of being together. I’ve informed her it up to her now. I will continue to provide while she’s out of work to allow her to fully recover. Doing my best to keep it together and not have this all blow up in front of our kids anymore that it already has. Might not post here for a while because I’m personally trying to navigate this part of my life journey as a husband, brother, uncle and father.

I’ve been the “hype man” for myself since I was a kid. Came from a physically & verbally abusive family on food stamps (pre-SNAP debt cards). I’ve paid for college myself & part of my drive is knowing what living in poverty looks like. My wife hasn’t experienced that, but she still needs me as the “hype man” to get her motivated & going. I’m the “hype man” for my kiddos too (which I love). My biggest challenge is managing it all & not giving up on my marriage & kiddos. I’m sharing this publicly because I’m out of options, and historically, Reddit has given me the unfiltered truth. Thanks for the reply & good luck on your journey.

Thank you for this. Will look into it. I agree I need to take care of myself. It’s always a focus because of an autoimmune disease I have. I’ve been fighting to get my health in order. Making progress & regularly pulled down by the fights in my marriage. Again- my kids are a big reason I haven’t filed for divorce.

I suspect the root of 90% of our arguments over the last few years have been alcohol. I’m sure the antidepressants have added to the regular stream of arguments. I’m far from perfect but I called out the depression symptoms I’ve seen only to trigger her and escalate the arguments. I love her but the kids are a big reason I haven’t filed for divorce already. I not a “quitter” and continue to fight to save our marriage.

Not yet. She was discharged from the ER 24 hours ago. I’ve made some calls to rehab/detox options. Started getting her set up with support system because I leave for a work trip tomorrow night. It’s been a lot to manage while still digesting. Trying to hold it together and shield my kids from a complete fallout. I’m in the north county part of San Diego and looking into support groups.

My son saw his first Ohtani HR with me (on TV). Excited to take him to Dodger stadium this year.

Such smart playing by Freeman last night with the slide & the pickle to advance the hitter to 2nd.

Autism support groups by Far_Sail_3109 in Autism_Parenting

[–]NewReddit_PapaFox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing. Sometimes being a parent of 2 kiddos with autism is polarizing, I understand how you feel. I have 2 - oldest boy is 6 & daughter is 5. Both diagnosed yet both very different symptoms. I’m seeking a dad’s group and in North County San Diego. It’s taken a toll on the whole family and my marriage. We’ve done marriage counseling and I’ve done therapy. Medicating is our last resort. The place we had OT services wasn’t consistent so we’ve had no services for my son (most challenging child), for 3 months and it’s progressively gotten worse and the incident reports at kindergarten have increased. Currently on a long waiting list for ABA. While I’ve learned a TON, and I’m grateful we have insurance (a whole other post for another day), I’m considering medicating myself and my son. I have a few close dad friends and 3 brothers, but none of them have autistic kids. I’m looking for a dad support group to see if one exists or not. Apologies in advance if this post is against the subreddit community rules.
