I grew up with an alcoholic father.
It has effected every aspect of my life. I lack self-esteem, I am ruthlessly perfectionist, and I can’t trust anyone. Worst of all, my background effects my relationship with the person I love most in this world–my husband. He certainly doesn’t deserve to pick up the pieces of what my father destroyed.
I have been through decades of therapy, and am juuuuust beginning to see a light at the end of the tunnel.
I am praying for you, but please consider your daughter. I vividly remember my father’s drunken episodes from when I was her age. Everything he does right now will effect her ten, twenty, thirty years down the road–I can promise you that.
Take care,
