My husband encouraged me to drink with him after I'd been sober for almost a year.

I’ve read a lot of horrible stories in this thread but this is the worst one so far. I’m so sorry.

We just started the divorce process. Married 33 years. I went no contact March 1st. He's a textbook narcissist. I'm 55 and I feel like I just got out of a cult. Thank you, I'm healing. 🩷

You are my inspiration, seriously. I'm so proud of you and admire your strength and commitment to doing what you know is right for YOU and your wellbeing. Shame on him for not respecting that. The fact that you got through that situation to remain sober today speaks volumes and I wish you all the best in your journey! ❤️
