Have just heard that my alcoholic dh has been accepted at a local housing project for a six month tenancy. The relief is enormous as he has been in and out of home since March, initially as I was giving him more 'chances' as he was promising to change, recently very much against my wishes as he had absolutely nowhere else to go and I wanted to allow him to see the dc and to attend his counselling/treatment programme, but it's been awful and the arguing has got worse and worse.
Of course I have gone through every emotion in the last six months including recognising and grieving over the loss of what once seemed like a lovely relationship and sound marriage, but now I am just feeling like partying!
Just wanted to share this to give hope to others going through similar, and update anyone who has chatted with or advised me in the last year.
