Hey Emily,
Congratulations on that 10 months of sobriety!!! HUGE work there.
And happy 9 year anniversary!
I glad you got that off your chest.
I’ve been struggling a lot during my marriage after my first year of sobriety. I guess I was so focused on myself and my sobriety it didn’t bother me having a wife that drinks daily. But then her drinking really started to bother me. We were drinking buddies for the longest time. She never ask for me to get sober. And she likes her drink.
I started a thread awhile back if you’re interested in reading other people’s stories. It may help. And feel free to join in if you like.
Things have improved greatly for me and my sober sanity ever since I started attending Al-Anon meetings. I get to be a double winner.
My wife’s drinking has also been a great reminder for me that I never want to go back.
I wish you well.
