    I'm only at day 2, but surely that is the healthiest first step to doing something about your situation. Can't have a life with someone based on a lie? Right? Good for you.

      Chelle,

      How did he take it? Did you tell him about MWO and that you are trying?

      I hope it all goes well for you and remember we will all be here to support you through this journey.

      Love and hugs,

              Hi Chelle,

              Good for you! He'd have figured it out eventually. I used to think I could hide my drinking (or the extent) from my husband, but he always knew. While we think we're more attractive, conversational, relaxed - whatever- when we drink, the people who love us know we're not really ourselves. We don't fool anyone but ourselves. The great thing, among others, about MWO is that the mask is off all of us! We know how hard sobriety is, and we support each other. Hope your fiance supports you; but even if he does, he may not fully understand like those of us who've been there. Stay connected - this is a wonderful group.

                      Big step .. great move!

                      I wish I had confessed that I was more than just a "social drinker" to my last love ... and needed to seek help.

                      Gotta start clean. Congratulations for having the courage to do it!

                          Thank you Everyone! Im so touched by your replies.
                          I showed my fiance my opening post on this forum, because I was crying too much to speak.
                          He hugged me and said that he already knew.. had noticed the bottles in the bin, and could smell it on me.
                          Here's me thinking that I was hiding it.

                          I so agree with the comment that we think alcohol makes us more conversational, attractive, relaxed. All its doing to me is mking me feel and look so much older than I am.

                          We talked and talked and talked last night, and he's standing by me no matter what.

                          I feel like a weight has been lifted, but there's a LONG way to go.

                          Im going to try for an AF day today.. will post back to say how I did.

                          Thank you all fo your support,
                          Love,
                          Chelle

                            Your last post gave me goose bumps! Your relationship can only grow from here!

                              Brave move and a good one, I know my problem has become easier to deal with after sharing it with my husband.
