I am in Al-Anon. My husband has been an alcoholic since he was 17. He was sober for 7 years and relapsed in October of 2013. I left him in February, the day of my mother's funeral. I filed for divorce the day after, which I know now was a mistake. He went through detox last week and is in a in-patient treatment center for 4 weeks. I miss him so much. My son and I couldn't take anymore of the verbal abuse or controlling behaviors. I have learned a lot since leaving. I enjoy doing puzzles, visiting with my daughter and grand babies and reading a lot. I don't know if my husband and I have a chance but I hope so. We've caused each other so much pain. I'm working on forgiving him and learning the roll I played in all of this. Thank you for listening and have a great day!!
