After hanging on to every excuse not to let go, worried about his safety and sobriety, I told him today I was done. Alot of people told me he was using me for the last 2 years but I would refuse to do it. I offered him a home, a stable environement where he didn't have to continuously be in survival mode and for 2 years I got excuses why he couldn't get sobber. we had one attempt last year that lasted 2 weeks and that was enough to keep me holding on. But after crying constantly and worrying and putting my life aside, I realized that if he hated his life so much and wanted to be with me, it would've happened. It sucks I wasted so much time and mad isn't even the word when he tried to turn it all around on me, I may have said things I shouldn't have but it's time to let myself be free, be at peace and just worry about myself and my kids. No more excuses.

you kept carrying the weight while he gave reasons not to. i’ve seen that before, the one giving everything ends up drained, while the other stays the same.
i did the same, put my whole world on hold hoping he’d choose me and choose better for himself. it broke me when i saw he didn’t. it’s not weak that you held on that long, it just shows how much you cared.
begging him to just try, giving everything i had, and still being made to feel like i was the problem. i was so pissed at myself for wasting years on someone who never even wanted to save himself.
Yes
