I know every situation is unique, but from extensive personal experience, and what many other women have shared with me, your husband probably needs help from someone other than you. He has to believe he needs help. As long as you continue providing support to him, while he is engaging in self destructive behavior, you are helping him stay sick. You are in a heart wrenching situation, and you may want to seek out the support of other women who have gone through this. A counselor, clergy person can point you in the right direction depending on your situation. You are not alone, you are not the first person to ever go through a situation like this. This is not your fault, and it is not your responsibility to fix, no matter how much you would be willing to sacrifice to fix it. Please seek out help with your situation – there is wonderful help out there, and you can get to the other side of this, but it’s a challenging road. My heart goes out to you Lee.
