Hey everyone. I know I posted some crazy bad news not long ago. I decided to stay with my husband. He actually chose me over his addiction and today he is 20 days clean!!! He snapped out of it long enough to see how distant I was and he said that it scared him. So he ran all the gas out of his truck and parked it, gave me his last few dollars, and broke his phone. He gave me a letter and told me no matter what he said or done not to give in and help him get anything. He crawled in the bed and that was where he stayed for over a week. He literally just stopped cold turkey. He suffered with some serious pain and withdrawal symptoms that week. Then the symptoms started to go away. He is starting to be back to his real self and has been working hard and being the husband that I fell in love with. Hes still a little aggitated which is normal. He is trying to cope with this bs life sober for once. Lol i'm like "Welcome to the real world honey!" He is still recovering of course but this is definitely a big first for him. I honestly thought my husband was gone. I didn't think he would turn around the way that he has! And i never would have thought I could ever move foward after all the things he done to me. But i have to keep reminding myself that, that wasn't him! If any mommas are going through something like this don't loose hope. You don't have to physically leave. What I did was just distant my self. Mentally and emotionally. I knew that there was nothing I could do. He had to want it hisself. I just watched and monitored so he could get help if he needed it. It was a painful thing to watch and it took alot of strength and alot of my sanity. But it kept him alive and gave him the chance to be him again! I am so glad that God brought him back to me! I am glad that God helped pull him out of the fog and gave him the strength and motivation to excape addiction. Pray my husband stays strong please addiction is known to be a life long fight. I don't want to loose him again. (This picture was the other day. He looks 100% better already and has gained all of his weight back!)

I'm so proud of him and happy for your family. Yes, once in recovery always in recovery but he can do this. I lost my aunt/ bestfriend to lupus in Jan 2017, the same week that my baby was due. But that woman taught me so much about life and one of those things was that addiction can be beat.. She was 24 years clean when she passed away. Tell hubby he's got this!! God bless you!
This is amazing. I hope he will get into some sort of support group. I used to do a lot of AA but now church is mine.
The fact that he went through the withdrawal on his own speaks volumes to how strong he is.
I’m SO proud of him!!! It’s a long hard road. Be prepared for arguments and shit. It gets better but it will get a little worse first. My husband has been sober for 21 months. Keep your eyes and ears open, don’t throw the past in his face, let him know how proud you are of him everyday. When you’re ready give him a little trust and not ask him questions. That’s something I had to learn. I was so scared he would go out and meet a friend or something QUESTIONED EVERYTHING
I’m not sure what to say. I’m glad your husband is back. It’s amazing that he realized his habit was costing him you, his true love. ❤️
I was just about to say something similar!! I seriously have no words and I am so proud of @mother.of.angels husband for opening his eyes and seeing that he was loosing the love of his life because of his addiction. This is such an amazing story!! 20 days may not seem much to some people but it’s definitely a lot to you guys!! ✨💖
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Am I wrong to be upset? Last night I was running a fever, weak, tired, sore, my left boob feels like it got used as a punching bag. I asked my husband to call out of work today to help me with the kid so I could get some rest. He went to work. I texted him this morning. Part of me thinks I mean. The other part of me thinks I was fine for saying that because he should've stayed home with us.
Question. I just left my husband for cheating and now hes been harassing me. Hes threatening to come get our son. I dont care if he sees his son but I'm not comfortable with him leaving with him bc hes never taken care of him a day In his life and he might use him against me. Am I wrong for feeling this way??
I'm back home from the hospital. It was a really long and hard weekend.I had my sweet baby boy. These are some of his things they gave him. That's the little hat they put on him and the little blanket they wrapped him up in. They also gave us the bear and keepsake box for his things.
Awhh thank you all so very much. I am very proud and happy. Still a little nervous but he's doing so well. I am just grateful and feel so blessed to still have him here. I told him if he keeps it up we will start ttc again at the 3 month mark. So he is very motivated and excited!
