I don't know when you learn to trust again. Our experiences shape our beliefs. And, history is the best predictor of the past. Try and take it one day at a time. Remember you cannot control, cause or cure his addiction. It is up to him.
Good Luck, Stay Strong.

I have herd it so many times.....I promise to stop and this is the last time. I have moved home but I am still scared in my own home that things will fall apart again. I just pick my self up again and got a great job and a new car...well not new but new to me...Things are finally starting to go good for me..I still love him but I am very scared that things are going to well and I am just waiting for something bad to happen. We are both going to him AA and me Alanon.....Plus we got into this thing at church called overcomers. When and if do you every start to trust again and how to you do this. Everything I look at him I just feel like no matter what he says is it the truth or just another lie.

It takes a long time for the trust to come back again, and it might not come back fully. You feel like you always need to keep your guard up,in case of a relapse, and you find yourself looking out for the tell-tale signs. Its difficult, but as long as he stays clean, you can get used to it. Good luck, stay strong, you have a long road ahead of you both. -

thank you so much for your kind words. I haft to keep reminding myself that I cannot control him and cure his addiction. I know it is very hard and I am just one of those people that likes to fix things. I am working on this and I understand we can only live in the moment because we are never promised tomorrow. Thank you again and God Bless. -
