Self addiction-confidence

Hi friends, .
This is hard to talk about but I feel i need to come clean. Along side my husband's addiction I have also abused alcohol as a means to cope. I feel that I am aware of the changes I need to make but because he lies I am not making them for myself. I need help

I completely understand and I applaud you for realizing and owning this. I feel like hurt spreads so fast. I look back over the plethora of things I did to cope with my hurt. The good news is that love can spread just as quickly too. Start today and love yourself. You are not the cause nor do you need to allow his addiction to define you! Declare that! It took me a long time to really internalize that. Start today. Maybe do a reboot of no drinking. 90 days clean. You and your husband can support each other. I understand coping in negative ways. Love yourself, focus on who you want to be for you! Set goals to slowing transform, baby steps. Hang in there, it gets better!
