Hello all! My AH and I have been seperated and living apart since July. He has talked about struggling to stay sober, which really means he's NOT staying sober. He got out of rehab on Thursday and called me drunk last night. I see no hope for change and therefore will start divorce proceedings. No more fighting, no more hoping he really is going to maintain sobriety. I wish him well for I love him but it has caused me so much pain. I have to free myself.

good luck to you, it takes a lot to make that decision and unfortunately were the ones that has to pay the price. Stay strong and live your life you deserve it.

Admire your strength. Think I always remained because I wasn't confident enough, although when hubby was sober he was a good person. Also wasn't a daily drinker - would binge and have periods of sobriety.
I've stayed far beyond what I should, and perhaps he would have sought help sooner if I moved on.
Wish you a better future, focus on what you can change.
Hope he finds the strength to get healthy. Meanwhile, find the peace that comes with a less stressful life
