Need advice....

Tonight I struggle. My husband does not know the severity of my addiction... And if he does, he hasn't brought it up. Tho I'm about to be in hell... Tomorrow being day three. I need to buckle dwn and tell him the truth. Its so hard cause we never know how people will react. But I know he loves me... And will have my back... But I'm scared to see his dissapointment. Ugh... I been avoiding this a long time.

Doesn't it feel so much better to have told him? My hubby told me last night that he has looked up my symptoms and does understand how I am feeling. day 4. But hes not so sympathetic I guess. Its wonderful to hear how your relationship is so strong and you know you will be ok. I wish you well. It's always good to hear another has made their time through this a little easier!

Take it minute by minute if you need to! My sponsor told me anyone can do anything for one minute! I keep replaying that in my head when I'm craving real bad. One more minute won't kill me. One more minute *****, but I can do it for just a minute more. You can do it!

You can do this! I put together a playlist of inspiring music and went for a drive... Listening to positive music has always been a big help for me, so maybe try that? Been thinking about you today, keep it up! Just think how far you've come! What day are you on now?
