I am glad lisa has support aswell..Thankyou....Sometimes i think she needs it more than i do...I was in a very dark place last night..I regret not just getting the whisky...But the mumbling wreck i became later on that night..

I am a proud man..Not easy to talk to face to face...Pretty shy and quiet really...But when i drink i turn into somebody else...A person i would'nt give the time of day to...A person i would cross the road to avoid...So how lisa can put up with this god only knows..

I am scared..And am angry...

All i know is this time next year..I will be in a peaceful place...And all this will be a bad memory..

Thanks again guys for supporting lisa...She needs mwo as much as i do:l

We support both of you Macks. Everyone needs it when there is a problem like this. You are doing great, you are trying. My dad chose alchohol over me and its left lasting scars.
You wont do that to your family I am sure.

I know Macks is gonna read this but I am gonna be really honest....I think he is scared....D day is looming and he is getting nervous about the thoughts of no booze whatsoever..I totally understand where he is coming from...when my stop date was coming, I drank more, i tried to get as much down my neck before I actually had to stop...the logic??? I dont know but it is how we work...like a person who has an eating problem and is going on a diet...stuff yourself with food before it is all taken away for good.....

I am hoping this is what it is...he is strong Lisa....he knows in his heart what he must do, I think with your support , the kids and ours, he will make it.....he is angry right now, annoyed with himself that he must give up for good, it is such a hard thing to take and it takes time to sink in.....

My thoughts are with you both and dont take anything angry he says to heart, he is angry with himself...not you, you can tell from his posts how much he loves you and the kids...he is a good and wonderful man and he will find his way.......

Please feel free to pm me anytime...you and the Mack man.....take care honey...

how did you get to be so intuitave,you would be a GREAT counceller , maybe thats what you need to study , you would be so very , very good at it , your advice is always spot on...love you girlie and to the Mackers, things are going to get better...we got your back.:l

Mrs. Macks, you don't need advice from me.. you are handling it 1000 times better than I ever did for 13 years, until about one 1 month ago. It took me years to face my loving husband's problem with AL the way you are facing yours. But, if you ever need another non-drinking shoulder to lien on, I am here because I will also always love my husband no matter what. I have and will stand by him.
PM me if you want or need.

Macks...
You will do just fine! I wish I had seen your post earlier, but people who do not want change would never be so transperant. You have put yourself out there with us, and with your family. I can only speak for myself, but I hope I can speak for many others.... and that is we are here. Good days and bad, you are loved, accepted and will never be rejected.

Love to you and Lisa, and all of your precious kiddie poos!
