[quote=Anonymous]Thank you for all of the advice. I have been seeing a therapist and will continue to do so. I am encouraging DH to do the same.

I have been doing a lot of reading, and I know that without help things will never improve for us. I have started to plan an exit strategy, should his promises fail. (Which they probably will, as they have in the past.)

I am no longer engaging in arguments with him. I did write a long letter to him explaining my feelings. I don't know that I will give it to him, but just writing it was pretty therapeutic.

I absolutely care about our children and protect them from everything. I do not think that being a single mom is worse than this. I do, however, know that jumping ship without a lifeboat will destroy us. We don't have a strong support system in the area, so this part is taking some time.

I am not blameless in this life, but I am worth more than this. I see that my strength needs to now go towards building a new life and not just toughing out this storm. I hope that the new life includes a sober DH, but that's his job, not mine.
