I'm new here, and checking things out. Think I need to start off with the book and go from there. I've been self-medicating with vitamins for a little while (l-glutamine, 5-htp) and not noticing much difference.
Hubby and I have drank since we met, almost 12 years ago. I feel like it's gotten worse over the last few years, and we now have 2 young kids that our habits will begin to have a tremendous effect on if we don't change our ways soon.
The problem--he doesn't think there's a problem. I've done everything but gotten on my knees and begged him to help me. We feed off of each other. I wake up in the morning SWEARING I'm not going to drink that night. Dinner time comes, he suggests going out, and that triggers it for us. We go to happy hour somewhere, have a few, and come home and have a few more. my 5 year old has begun to ask why she's only allowed 1 glass of milk at dinner when me and daddy get how ever many we want??
So back to my question. I totally recognize that I have a problem. But in order to fix myself, I'm feeling like I will need to separate myself from hubby somewhat if he's not willing to work with me. Our relationship is already suffering. Affection is practically non-existent. Anyone else in this boat, and how do you handle it?
