Name says it all. Married to alcoholic. Been dry for 7 years apart from 2 small slip ups. (That I know of) also has had issues with tablets more recently. Although as far as I'm aware not for 2 years or so since he ended up with perforated ulcer.
Anyway he also suffers from depression and he's been moody as fuck last couple
Of months. Not going to meetings etc.
I've been a bit suspicious lately as he's been for a few 'walks' in the evening. Told me he was walking to get girls from school today as healthier.
Anyway youngest woke up upset wanted a cuddle from him she called him but he didn't come up so I went down found him asleep in arm chair. I knew immediately. Looked in his bag small vodka bottle with few sips missing. He came too. Looked confused. He Went upstairs and I found another small empty one in there. There was a time about 2 month ago and he was in a going for walks phase and a couple of times he came back a bit 'off' he's denying it obviously but pretty sure it must be that. He takes his bag everywhere with him (around the house) but always has.
Fuckity fuck fuck.
We don't have the best relationship
I know. I think I lost most feelings for him over the drinking years but we plod along.
Just don't know what to do. Well I know what I want to do but then I think I cannot manage financially. I don't want to lose this house. (I am main earner but don't think I could manage alone) he went part time but that's as much down to struggling to work with the depression as it is to provide childcare.
Just need to vent really.
