I absolutely just took so much strength from your post, I am 2 years in to having a wife who has multiple addictions. We have 2 sets of twins and I have a stressful job and I used denial to try get through the first year, then started to see the writing was on the wall as she continually relapsed.
This week has been my lowest week ever, I am barely hanging on and have to continually put on a brave face for my children. I have decided that I am going to have to have the hard discussions and ask her to leave and think about divorce etc.
She lives a comfortable life as I pay all the bills and her money is just wasted on her addiction. I have bailed her out more times than I care to remember, and she has stolen from me and the children on multiple occasions, but I will not be defeated.
I am going to take your advice and hopefully show her that this could be the end if she doesn’t take the support that has been offered.
It will kill me to do it, but it’s killing me living how we are.
Thank you all on here again for your stories and messages of support, seeing people genuinely showing concern and support for others give me faith in the human race.
Everyone, take care and stay strong.
