I had a friend suggest the same group. I think I will check into that. If several people that don’t even know each other have suggested it. It might be best to do it. I am not willing to continue to put my son through it. If it was just me then yes I would stay. But no not my son. He is now old enough to understand everything. He is 13 and has a voice and knows what’s going on. It just pains me so bad that he has to see this behavior out of his father.

Hi. Yes. My son actually talks with the school counselor as well as I have him in with a private therapist.

My husband is a recovering alcoholic as well as a recovering opioid addict (3 times). He also almost died in a wreck in 2017 after walking out on my son and I for the first time.

I have always shopped all throughout our marriage. It was a way to deal with all
Of his addictions. He never had a problem with it until he stopped with his addictions. Then the shopping was an issue. Well shopping was an addiction for me by this time because I had been doing it for 20 years.

That became a big problem for us. So he says that’s one reason for the divorce. He also says that he has low self esteem due to me. He says that I always put him down. I don’t see that I done this. But maybe I did and didn’t realize.

I did however find out this week he is back on pain pills. The same ones that he was addicted to the first 3 times.
