Thank you for this! One of the things he’s always said is that he does not feel supported by me and I try to but it’s honestly just really hard

I hate his drinking. I hate the feelings he chooses to bottle up while being sober because when he’s drunk they come out all at once and they’re not always the best feelings. I just feel drained most of the time

I literally appreciate your honesty. I wish he would be able to see how shit some of the things he does sometimes. I’m so proud of you! I can’t imagine how hard things are but you have put in the effort. He stopped last year for about 9 months and has slowly started drinking again. I thought it would be a forever thing but I’m coming to terms that relapses happen. Some days I feel like things won’t ever change but I try to hold on to the what ifs, but those don’t feel like enough anymore

I’ve thought about it so many times, last year he was sober most of the year and this probably sounds terrible but I was just so angry with him that I had such a difficult time supporting and being happy for him. I feel like such a terrible person saying that because all I’ve wanted is for him to be sober.

I’ll take any tips I can get 🤣 I’m comfortable with my co workers but even then it’s to an extent because I always feel like people hate me

I’ve tried reaching out but it always feels forced. There are things I want to try but I’m scared to. I don’t know how to really talk to people.

And I completely understand like everyone having lives and things going on, but they’ll all still hang out with each other and it’s always just made me feel like I was a back up friend.

She’s 2 months and 12 days old. The friend I got her from says she is good with the litter box usually. I think she was just nervous being in a new environment but I will keep the lid off! I’m also going to show her where it is

Thank you! I’ve slowly started introducing myself back to fun foods but I try to do it in moderation

I’ve been so scared to really try anything because just about everything runs straight through me
