      I'm so sorry you are going through this. I hope I didn't sound tough saying to do the no contact. I'm worried about you after what you said he did to you. Hugs to you. This will get better.

    • I’m With You

      From Rachel2 January 8

      I'm sorry you are feeling bad. I completely understand about living with someone who substance abuses. I have Stage 4 Endo and I had pain pills for "just in case". I never got a chance to use them, because my husband took them all and drank at the same time. I can't have any meds in the house, he has gone so far as to take my Birth Control Pills. I truly understand, I hope you start to feel better very soon! Thanks for the input, too. :) It helps me tremendously.
