Hi Zoey! Thanks for your concern. I haven't disappeared yet. If you go under poetry, you'll see 2 poems I wrote. One is "Uninvited" about alcoholism and the other is "How long is enough" about getting near the end of the rope. We only had 1 counseling session so far. She suggested that my H go into treatment first but so far he has not made any attempt. He drank again last week. Who knows how long it'll take before he does it again. Haven't stopped thinking of the OM yet. I've read it could last as long as 6 months for the withdrawal feelings to end.

HI SS Im so happy to hear from you. I know its so hard. Yes, for some I heard Withdrawel lasts long. Are you still doing the NO CONTACT thing? I hope so. Its best!
I realize you are dealing with so much but please be strong. I didn't forget you. Been having a few tough weeks myself but hanging in there thanks to the good people of MB.
How are you holding up for the holidays? When do you go to counseling again. Please stay strong and know that Im here. Just had a few rough weeks myself and you know how that goes but you can always find me here. Post a note to me in Recovery that is mainly where I go. You should too. Great forum there.
Merry Christmas Zoey
