Hi
Thanks
Monday i was a mess.
Yesterday was a little easier and I focused on tidying the house etc
Then he asked to come home
I am picking him up today
We have hardly spoken since Sunday apart from the odd text.
He’s made some very positive steps the last few days and I do think this time feels slightly different as he has puts steps in place to get help. And his parents now know everything, and I guess now they know we have their support but also he will know he has to stay clean/sober for them too as well as me and the kids.
I’m under no illusion it’s going to be rainbows and unicorns and magical from here on in.
I spent an hour talking to his mum last night while he was at the cinema with his dad. It felt really good to be able to talk to her and her tell me things.
I told her all the stuff he’d said to me about it being my fault, leaving me, etc – and she said he’s been saying the exact opposite to them. That he loves me, he can’t imagine life without me, and that he takes advantage of my love for him which he knows is wrong
He’s waiting for a call back from a service through work to start counselling. They’ve said he can have 7 free sessions. So see what happens
