Feeling alone

I have been with my partner for 18 months 

he is an alcholic

he isn't abusive 

but I feel alone and like I don't matter as beer is a priority

Re: Feeling alone

Hey @Nikki7, thank you for sharing your experiences with the community!

 

It takes real courage to reach out to your peers for support, and you're brave for being vulnerable and sharing your experiences. You are demonstrating your resilience by talking and not holding it all in.

 

I can really appreciate how challenging it must be with your partner drinking and not taking your feelings into account. It seems that you have not been with them for too long and perhaps are still getting to know their habits and lifestyle. 

 

I'm curious to ask if you have spoken with anyone about this or is it your first time? There are several support lines that can support you with these challenges you are facing and I will include a few here in case you want to contact them. 

You don't deserve to be treated in this way and there are plenty of options for you to concider! I encourage you to continue to connect here on the Forums.

 

Thank you so much for reaching out the taking the time to share your story 🙂

 

Take care

Welcome to the forums.

I am sorry you have to deal with an alcoholic partner. I am sure there are some very difficult times. My dad was an alcoholic. Maybe you can get your partner to get some support. Maybe they are not yet ready to change?
