Impending Divorce

Steve, I am not sure if you are a veteran or not. But my brother was an alcoholic. At the time we were living together. He came to me and told me he was throwing up blood and asked me to take him to the Er which I did. A little later they told me he was going to be transported to the VA hospital for inpatient rehab. (You might want to request a leave of absence from your boss) since then he has maintained a regular job, met a gal and got married and bought a house. He was inpatient for 30 days. Didn't know if this was an option but thought I would mention it

 

I will add this that I saw to be very common. When 1 mate is cheating they usually push blame on the other. You drink too much, you don't work enough, you have anger issues, etc. It is your fault we are getting a divorce. It is called justification. It helps with their guilt they do not want to own. Now granted there is usually fault on both sides when a marriage ends but when adultery is involved, justification is usually seen.

 

Steve, I am really sorry to hear this; I know that must have really hurt. Big Hugs.

 

I'm sorry everyone....... I must have broken a rule or 2 venting about the tough times I am going through. I won't post anything anymore. I'm sorry to everyone if I ever offended you in any way. Thank you for the tips on how to heat my home better with wood. I made a couple modifications to my wood stove the really, really helped out. Thanksgiving and Christmas were amazing......my propane furnace never turned on and my home was warm. Once again, I'm out, and won't come back. You have all been great people....people I wouldn't mind meeting in real life. Goodbye.

 

SD Steve I hope you return to this thread as I am sure that 99.9 % of the folks on this forum want to be by your side and help you through any tough times you are having. Keep talking my friend...not sure if you are a veteran, but if you are please get in touch with WeldrDave ...I promise you his connections are the real deal. If you are not a veteran, reach out to the guys that have been down this scary and lonely road. Stay strong Steve, you can get thru this

 

SD Steve, I truly hope that you stay with us. I believe if what you've posted was a problem the mods would've stepped in and locked this thread. If you don't reply to this thread please contact the folks that can give you information that can get you the help you've asked for. I will continue praying for you and your family!

 

Like I said before Steve hang in there with us it’s obvious when you read back through this that the majority of your wood hoarding friends are genuinely concerned about you sir. Isolation is the last thing you want/need right now. Please keep communicating with us.

 

No Steve; don't go away. Believe me that talking to others is very important; I don't know about any rule being broken. The moderators just moved the thread to a different board to keep things neat. They didn't mean you shouldn't have posted at all.

 

Steve I see you are a veteran of the Navy. If you are not already signed up for VA health care, then please do so. You can get the help you need there.

But just like other recovery programs, it will require great effort on your part.

You have already read through many instances of the same examples as yours and even some far worse off cases that have ended successfully.

Good luck.

 

Steve, you've not broken any rules we have at all. As Kimberly stated, the mods just moved this thread to the proper place. If there was something wrong with this thread, it wouldn't be open to comment on, and more importantly, you would've been told that it wasn't ok.

 

Has anyone heard from Steve?

 

He was on last night.

 

No. I PM’d him my number the first day he posted. He hasn’t even looked at it. He obviously reached out and screamed for help. We can’t help if he doesn’t allow such.

 

i sent him a PM.and not got back two me.hope he is ok.
