Spoke my truth


After last night alcoholic being drunk and calling me down again, said I was lazy, I refuse too work, he is disgusted that I am not working, while he has to get up every morning and go to work, ect..I went to bed and put in ear plugs and went went to sleep. I did not wake up this morning at 5 am like I usually do, and I did not do any house cleaning, cooking like I usually do. I am lazy and I will show him, what lazy is. I am so angry still. I send him a text today and said clearly, I do not deserve to be verbally abused and called down. I said if you have an issue with me, talk to someone that wants to hear it, as I do not want to hear your verbal diarrhea. I am not here to be yelled and called down. I deserve better, much better treatment than that. I said I have people that love and believe in me and I do not deserve to be treated like a rag! I said you need to get help with your mental issues that cause you to have a negative outlook on life and people. I said I do not want to hear your negative talk that does nothing to create a livable situation. In fact, I said, it makes you a very sad person to be around as your so negative and hurtful and I certainly do not deserve that type of treatment! I deserve to be happy  and in a positive environment and if you have issues deal with it. I do not want to hear it. I was angry but I said to myself, enough is enough, I am not going to hear his negative vomit that he believes he can puke into me. I am standing up for myself and now that he is home from work, I am having anxiety, as I know what will happen, will start to drink again. I have made plans and put an emergency bag in my car and called a hotel and a friend. I am not going to allow this sick man to bring me to his sick level. I have not talked much to him since he got home. He just asked how I was, and I said fine. I just am still angry that I have allowed myself to be mistreated like crap. I deserve better and I am going to keep that focus going. I am not going to let his ugliness destroy me. He is trying to make me as miserable as he is and I will not go down that road. I will leave the house for my own sanity. I just feel so angry still. I am angry at myself I believe, because I have not taken action sooner to leave this sick relationship. I just kept hanging on. Nothing is going to change with him...no, that is reality! I have to get that reality through my thick skull. He is sick and getting sicker. I can not even stand to be around him. God help me, to get a life I can be proud of! Get me a new home I can be safe and happy in! God help me! God open the door to a sane life where I can be free from active alcoholism! 

 

Thanks for letting me share this. I have been having a rough day all day! Not  a good place for me to be in!

Hang in there. Know your worth and do what's best for you. I'm not sure that's the al anon way but if you feel like you're in danger go. No matter how hard we try we can not make someone change that doesn't want to. Good luck to you
