Your last replies before this one when asked
Rate your drunkenness tomorrow when we win..

Let's just say I'm not gonna be in any condition to drive,walk,or appear in public places whether we win or lose!
My wife and kids are on notice for tomorrow.

My Son watched me cuss Bama,the refs,and Saban so much over his first 7 years that one day he was at the gas station with my Wife and an older gentleman pulled up with Alabama plates while my Wife was getting gas. My son got out of the car and walked over to the guy and said "My Daddy says F@@k Alabama!, He hates em'all!" My wife of course turns 3 shades of red, apologizes and puts him back in the car while the man was literally laughing till he damn near cried! She then promptly called and informed me of what happened! I of course caught hell for a few weeks but, right or wrong, it was one of those proud Father moments!

OG,
Never give in or give up. Hope is a good thing. Small steps.
First, take care of you. Take care of daily tasks/chores little things, but any kind of accomplishments mean something.
Exercise, even if just a 10 minute walk outside around the neighborhood or some park.
There is time. Time for hope. Time for love. Time for happiness. Time for laughter. Time for sorrow. Time for self reflection. Time for healing. Time for friendship(s). Time to reflect. Time to improve.
There is time. NOTHING in this world is impossible. Exhale and give yourself a break and some time to heal and improve. One small step at a time. Its the little things...they matter.

Praying for you. Keep looking above for your strength. Get some help. Been there...you can do it.

Damn bro, if I can do it, you can. I lost everything and rose from the ashes.
Get into therapy and cut off anything and anyone that is a window back into that world. I had to leave BR

I have question for the thread.
Have ever encountered addicts you just can’t do anything for them—they just will not quit the spiral, are broke, have run off their family, will not seek help and just do not care?
I know somebody dealing with such a person. The person lives in a house on their property and will not leave. No electricity. No income. Just the food people give her and money she bums and then spends it on dope. They going to have physically move the woman out and board up the house.
What to do with people?

According to your time line you were still sober when they left. So she didn’t leave bc you relapsed?
If so, stop whatever it is you’re doing (again) and go fight for your family. If it’s too late for you and your wife then so be it, but make sure you do whatever you need to do to be there for the kids. That means getting along with her no matter what it takes.
Think about the kids. So many messed up families bc the parents can’t put their differences aside and act like adults.
God speed.

As much as you want to fight to get your wife and kids back, now is not the time. You are no use to them. And you are of no use to yourself. Your wife is trying to protect the children. While it’s natural to be angry at her, she’s doing it for their safety or what she believes is the best situation for them (and her).
You have to focus strictly on yourself first and foremost — get yourself right and then you can learn again to take on more responsibility. Take it one day at a time. One moment at a time. Find a good support group and learn to be selfish, for now.

Sadly I have a bunch of old buddies that are in that situation. They will not get better until they want to, it's fricking sad

Go to an ER and check yourself in. They will find a place for you to go if you agree.

lol at all the morons that are still taking the OP seriously
Posted on 11/13/19 at 7:53 pm to OGJangalang
Hang in there OGJangalang. You control you. It ain't never easy but it does get less hard. We only do this thing once and then we are gone. I hope you choose the right path and realize that there is something bigger than you and I. You are here for a reason. Be strong and brave. I don't know you but I feel your pain my brother. Love yourself. YOU can do it.
Posted on 11/13/19 at 7:56 pm to OGJangalang
Not even one day at a time. More like 10 minutes at a time
Posted on 11/13/19 at 7:58 pm to OGJangalang
Get help now. And hang in there, b/c there’s always a light at the end of the tunnel

He started this same type of thread back in February and only replied once. We’re now on page 3 with no responses again. This doesn’t feel like an attention thread and his post history backs that up.

Until the pain of remaining the same becomes too great, people will not change.

Praying for you. I struggle with alcoholism and mental health issues and lost my first wife to overdose and struggling to get my current wife and kids back now. Some days are better than others. You are not alone.
Posted on 11/13/19 at 8:19 pm to OGJangalang
You can’t do it alone. Get in a program. Seriously.
I have seen the Lone Ranger efforts play out time and again it doesn’t work.
If you’re in a program call your sponsor.
Good luck man.

It’s temporary.
Things will get better.
Keep going.
You can overcome.
