Breaking point
My husband is a recently relapsed alcoholic with a drug addiction too. He isn't drinking currently but is being so horrible to me that I am reaching my breaking point. He's focusing on my "faults and problems" so I know he's deflecting. He constantly talks about wanting to get another high and is always belittling me. He's seeing a counselor (and I have an appointment with someone next week) but I'm just at a loss of what to do. The manic episodes are going to be the end of my sanity!
Sorry you're going through this. It doesn't hurt less even knowing the cycle of the addict/ alcoholic with their horrible actions and hurtful words they can use. I'm happy you both are seeing a counselor. Hopefully that helps. You're not alone. We're here for you.
