Hi all
So sorry you are going through this it must be hell especially if you have children
It’s very difficult to understand that it’s not that they don’t care for you
It’s that the addiction is stronger
Whatever pain they are in they need the drugs or alcohol to relieve it
They never seem to know why but deep inside there is something triggering it
My son has been sober for nearly 6 months but off he went on a bender
We all have Covid he was on his own and just decided to binge drink and not answer his phone
This is crazy drinking maybe 10/12 bottles of wine
I’ve been really unwell he lives 180 miles away from me
The drink made the Covid worse and he’s been in hospital since last Sunday
With breathing problems
They are really not in their right minds
It’s so powerful
You should try to look after yourselves and your children
It may take you a long time to get in a place where you can manage
Get help if you can
This is a good forum for advise and insight into this alien world you are in at the moment
Take care
Love and hugs
