is it just me or does anyone else fee like they are burden on there family/spouse/friends
i managed to go out today and went into a big store, me and my husband brought the thing we wanted and whilst we were waiting for someone to bring it to the car my husband wanted to look around, i couldent and i didnt want to be on my own so he stayed with me, but i feel really guilty i feel as if no one can enjoy themselves with me around, i am always on edge or freaking out and they then have to look after me
i cant take me kids anywhere and i seem to not be able to go to any shops now and it makes me feel guilty and like maybe i should leave them to get on with there lives:crying:

I don't care what my family thinks of me. I do what I want. If that doesn't please them, too bad. This is my life, not theirs.

He should not blame his drinking on anyone but himself.

If you feel such heavy guilt... Maybe you should let it guilt you into treatment of some kind. You can only continue to feel this badly if you do nothing to make changes.

All that having been said. I'm sure your family doesn't feel you are a burden so much as they would likely prefer to be able to share more with you. Hang in there!

I feel the same way with my parents. I'd rather be homeless than go back and live at home with my parents.
