Thanks so much for this group. I to am living with an Alcoholic and to say the
least its exhausting. I am engaged and not sure about marriage and recently
discovered I am expecting. I am a successful career women own my own home my own
car etc and have managed to have some part of my life that has been so difficult
to deal with.

Between the everyday struggles that we all encounter whether it be medical with
family or yourself or just being stressed its difficult to want to come home to
relax and be around your Alcoholic.

Alcohol is a disease so how do we determine when to stop helping our loved ones
when they cant help their disease??

Hi
I have just joined this group and thought i would say hello to everyone. I am
married to an alcoholic and have recently joined my local Al Anon. Unfortunately
my husband has started drinking again and I have asked him to leave the marital
home. However i am finding it difficul to cope with the guilt I feel as i
realise he is in great pain. However i know I must take care of me.
I hope to share and support everyone in the group and to be a valued member
 
Grace
