I am a recovering alcoholic. My marriage has been a roller coaster.
I am a married man with three children, and I am a recovering alcoholic. My marriage has been a roller coaster filled with lies, infidelity , abuse and drinking. I am in an outpatient alcohol program to save myself, my family and my marriage.
I still want to save my marriage. I know I have been a poor husband due to the drinking, but that is changing. I keep trying to convince her to give me a little time to prove that I can be a brand-new, sober, honest man. She says it’s too late and that I pushed her into the arms of others. She says she no longer loves me and is going to divorce me. She evidently has hired an attorney.
That you are in a program to help you overcome your addiction is laudable, but paramount now is that you do everything you can to heal yourself. It will make you a better father to your children if you are fully present. You may need professional counseling to help you through this painful period so you can map out a better future for you and the kids.
