Trying to detach but struggling
Relationship Stress / by HopeForPeace129
Last post
 September 6th, 2023
...See more I feel very alone in this struggle and I am trying my best to maintain. I live with my son's father who is an alcoholic. He will not leave. He believes that he isn't an alcoholic and I am manipulating the situation. He can't hold a job and hides nips and beer cans throughout my house. I am currently trying to detach and focus on healing myself but I am struggling. It is hard to pay all the bills, do all the house and yard work and care for my ten year old all while he lays in the couch getting drunk and playing video games and leaves messes everywhere for me to clean. Any advice on how to stay calm and not let it get to me?
