Take each day as it comes. Focus on the positives whatever they may be. As small as they may be. I’m currently in a similar position and came on here looking for advise on what to do about my alcoholic husband. Three weeks ago he was taken away by the police. I took the opportunity. Battened down the hatches and left his suitcase outside the front door. Some days are hard some are easy. There are times when I think I’m being harsh. He is ill. In sickness and in health as we said. But then I remind myself that I now feel safe in my own home again. I’m not on edge again. I can be me again. I didn’t sign up to what I was living with and if I had a friend in my position I wouldn’t be saying anything other than to stick to your guns. Once a addict always an addict. The trust is gone. And what is a relationship without trust? I have limited communication as I found this helped and focus on each day. Never tomorrow or next week just here and now. Three weeks on its getting easier. I hope it does for you too.
