(((Naomi))) - sorry for the way the evening turned out. My hope is that your drive was lovely and a break from the insanity of the disease, even if just for a short while. I totally understand your anger and uncertainty. My hope is you've got meetings nearby and can lean into your program to help you deal/heal from the disease.
Keep coming back - you are not alone!

I'm so sorry you had to spend your wedding anniversary in this type of misery. I guess the one good thing is that he didn't drink and drive to come pick you up and risk your life and his. I hope today can be a better day for you and you can do something for yourself to make yourself happy.
