Aaww bless you Navy. Don’t worry about posting or anything like that, you’ve got something called life to resolve!

When you’re on the other side (like me hopefully forever) it’s frustrating to see addicts behaviour having such a disheartening effect on their loved ones. We don’t really realise how much pain our loved ones are going through. I often have thoughts about my poor wife going to bed on her own every night while I stayed downstairs sniffing and drinking. I think of all those occasions when I was there but I wasn’t really. All those times I took my kids out because I couldn’t let them down but again still sniffing. It’s purely a selfish behaviour and I was doing all I could to not look in the mirror. Addicts have to confess to themselves they’ve got a problem and that what could happen (separation, loneliness) is happening. Then the real test begins, are you willing to give it all up so you can carry on sniffing or are you going to walk a more blessed path?
