No worries, this is a brilliant forum, so glad I found it makes u realise ur not alone. All I will say is put ur foot down from the start cos the more u let them get away with things, the harder it gets and u start doubting urself. Also focus on urself, dont let their addiction decide how life should be, i.e. I recall not attending important functions because he was intoxicated but now I realise I should have attended without him but i was also embarrassed and didnt want to have to explain why he wasnt there. I have learnt so much by removing myself and my kids from that environment. Addiction is a selfish disease but I hope and pray we all come out better from this x
