My name is Jill. I joined this group because I need some help and support in dealing with codependency issues I am having. I was in a relationship for ten years with my sons father who is an alcoholic/addict. Her has been sober for 5 months now while living in a recovery house. A couple of weeks ago I learned that he is seeing someone he met at a meeting and he ended our relationship. I am not dealing with detaching well and I find myself to be very jealous of this other girl. He had been using since my son was born and has been in and out of treatment programs the whole time always coming back to us in between. Now that he seem to be working the steps and program effectively he is walking away. I know this sounds ridiculous but it hurts.
