The D Word
It's been a long time since I posted here. I now wish that I had resolved to do then what I have resolved to do now.
I think I'm absolutely insane given the number of chances I've given her and the times I've thought about doing this....or even started but then backed off. Somehow I couldn't just bring myself to it.
I hope this time I'll have the strength to carry through.
My AW and I have been married for 7 years. We have a 6 year old son with mild autism. When I met my wife, she had 7 years of sobriety and seemed very strong in her sobriety.... she could have alcohol in the house, be around people who were drinking... didn't phase her in the least.
That all changed 5 years ago when she started drinking. It's been a nightmare roller-coaster ride ever since then. My life savings are nearly exhausted..... my sanity is frayed and I won't even talk about my emotions.
Thank god my son has been spared alot of this.....as he doesn't fully understand whats going on with his mom... just that she acts crazy sometimes.
I tried putting her through rehab.... it failed miserably.
I tried Mediation with her..... it was a colossal waste.
I'm finally ready for divorce...I'm speaking to the lawyer on Thursday.
I'm scared as heck about the next few months of my life.....and about being a single parent of an autistic child.
I thought about staying....whether it would be easier to raise our son...even if she were still drinking..... but I know that's just a pipe-dream on my part. The simple fact of the matter is that the times she has been away (rehab, mental health evaluation).... life was MUCH easier in many ways....although it certainly was scary.
Some-one please tell me there is a light somewhere at the end of this tunnel!

Ladies I need input…
Oh my gosh-
Just the other day I made a post about trying to get my daughter back. Well I am house sitting for my mom and dad and I also have my daughter for the entire week and guess what happened to me....
The day after I got to my mom's house DHS; department of human services; showed up to inform me that I have had allegations made on me that I let my 3 1/2 year old daughter drink alcohol, smoke weed, smoke cigarettes, and that i beat her and pull her hair if she has nightmares or wets the bed!!!!
I am so completly floored that this is happening to me...I don't even have guardianship of my daughter and DHS is being called on me...not to mention I haven't touched weed since before november of last year...and i don't drink around her...plus it's hard enough for me to put her on timeout let alone beat her or pull her hair...
The social worker interviewed me and my daughter on Saturday and said that from what she heard she was going to talk with her supervisor about closing our case but still fact of the matter is WHY WAS I EVEN ACCUSED OF THAT?
I am so lost right now and ready to give up on everything and everyone....even tho I know it's not a good idea....ahhhhh can this get any worse....
