Quote From: untrustingHello,
I am new at this site. How do you check to see if anyone replied to our postings? I had an arguement with my husband last night. I wanted to discussion his drinking problem. I said some things which weren't very nice. He knew I was serious on my belief. Once during our conservation, he told me I was having an episode regarding my illness. Which wasn't fair to me since I knew actually what I was talking about and wanting him to see it from my point of view. My mood is better today. I called churches checking out some bible studies hoping to find some extra support outside the family. What advise does anyone have for me with my depressive mood and trying to see the positives in life?

My parents are alcoholics. That's what they do blame it on someone else. Change the topic. Go into their rages. You know you weren't in a mood and your reality tells you that. They have a support group called Al-Anon...these are people who are dealing with an alcoholic (whether spouse, siblings, children, parents, etc.). Churches have these groups. Another place to look is the yellow pages and local paper usually lists these types of groups. When I was younger I went to Ala-teen. It was helpful...plus you learn the alcohoics "tricks" and you learn not to enable them.
Good luck & hang in there
Rhonda
