Welcome Gabe. Sounds like you got a great wife there. That’s something to be truly grateful for. I don’t usually like to give advice but share through my experience strength and hope. But………the 2 of you could surround yourselves with recovery if you were both willing. It’s a family disease. I go to Al-Anon because my wife is an active alcoholic and I go to AA because I am a recovering alcoholic. I’m just fantasizing about how much the 2 of you could learn about this disease together and separately and how beautiful a thing it could turn out to be. And you could support each other. Anyway. I’m don’t with advice.
