Thank you you both so much for your words.And Claire I really appreciate your taking time out of your day to write me such amazing things.Its some sort of relief to know that there are people out there that fully understand the situations that we are both going thru.Doing what you did and moving must have been the hardest decision to make.Its so hard to leave someone you want to help and care about who is unwilling to help themselves eh?? Youre a strong person for having the courage to move forward.I commend you.I love your idea of looking at mylife from the outside.My therapist suggested to take a break for a few days away form the whole situation.Which i plan on doing.He also suggested to make contacts with people in the same siutation.So that why im here…its so comforting to know that i dont need to feel overhwelmed or embarrased anymore..Velvet yes i will start my own thread!:) thank you so much for the advice and speak soon
hello…im new here too.After many google searches looking for a recent forum where family of PG could get support.
My husband is PG.I had kinda known for our whole relationship (9 years two kids) but was far too embarrassed to address the situation.And i justified it to myself that it was only $50 here and there.But in the last year it has significantly gotten worse.Its now thousands and thousands.It started when he took on a new role at work (more hours) and he got a personal loan for a vehicle and seperate bank account to our joint one
The deceit and staying nights away unexplained.It has been the worst year of my life.I now suffer from anxiety,depression and wonder what will happen next.I find it hard to sleep and am often up in the middle of the night with panic attacks.AS nothing is in my control.He is the main income earner in our family.And every time i think about leaving i get overwhelmed with the how.Im sick of talking to family and friends about it and they just don’t get it.And sure they listen but thats as far as it goes theres no real support.
Im so glad i have found this forum and hope to find some people in similar situations so i know im not alone,feeling embarrassed and like a failure.
Speak soon:)hello…im new here and i feel your pain.I too have a husband that gambles(drinks,and drugs too) im here looking for people in a similar situation to not feel so alone.So i get the alone feeling.So hard to stay strong and get past the deceit and lies and constant up and down of “yes i will stop” and then going straight back to it….It has destroyed our relationship.And im at the stage of trying to find clarity or a way out or both… look forward to hearing from you …
