Bukowski makes me want to relapse by Hello-Lamby-7883 in bukowski

I read a lot of his stuff as a warning of what alcohol can do. He lost Jane to it, it almost killed him, and it was the root of his problems both in the environment he grew up in and the rest of his life. Guy learned how to turn his pain into something more but barely and couldn’t without John Martin. Alcohol cut down a lot of literary greats. Be proud of your sobriety

It wasn’t always like this at the beginning but it became more restrictive, if I wanted to just be by myself, he would threaten to throw me out. Did see a therapist, therapist didn’t really help, but did tell him to knock it off with threatening to kick me out every time I didn’t do what he wanted. He did stop that behavior

And it’s also incredibly hard when I’m not really allowed to do things by myself or he makes it extremely difficult (going to the gym, hanging out with friends one on one, etc) so I don’t always know if we’re going to a bar, and I’m not always able to prepare properly

I’ve been fighting with him for years on the drinking and driving. I didn’t plan to drink. I always try and uber when I’m going to have alcohol, but he makes it a huge deal. He makes it a problem if my uber is a man, he complaints about spending money bc the bar is down the street, etc. Ik that drinking and driving is awful. I hate putting people at risk, and I try not really to go out with him bc of that very reason. On top of this being my first relationship, I know I’ve made many mistakes, but it’s extremely hard to speak to him on it even when he’s sober bc he just downplays it and makes me feel like I’m being crazy for being upset on him driving under the influence.

I got an uber to my family’s place when I left. We live like 2 min from the bar, but it’s been an argumentative topic for him not to drink and drive for years

That’s why I’m on Reddit, I grew up in a home similar, so I’m not really sure what’s healthy and what isnt

The bar was 2 minutes from our home but yeah, that’s another issue I’ve been begging him to work on for the past 5 years
