My day so far

https://www.democraticunderground.com/10182135485

My "partner" just drank 2 bottles of wine in 2 hrs and is staggering around. He walked outside where they're are steep stairs he's already fell down and broke his arm. My therapist said don't baby sit. He's an adult. He won't move where i want to tho I'll be paying for it.

Old me would have walked out checked him and gotten screamed at. I resent being put in as a parent.

I have a jaw-push headache and today its my right eye twitching.

When he finally kills himself and i tell his estranged family, i wonder should i share w them he was an abusive alcoholic and junkie. Snoring his ground up opioids and playing games w pain management. Falling on the floor peeing. That their big brother is an abusive pos. He told me the other day fuck you dumb bitch. Now he's staggering around and i have jaw pain. He keeps looking for food that doesn't exist. Slugging wine.

Should i let them know what garbage he is?

If he dies due to a mishap caused by his drinking/drugging, and they try to blame you, I would definitely not hold back on telling them the facts. Otherwise...I don't know.

And out came emts and fire trucks and cops and detectives... police tape etc. A woman was sitting on the steps hysterical..i feel I should let authorisaties know he drinks . He was taken off pills cold turkey after the np figured out something wasn't right. He told. Me he was going to sue and i told him I'm spilling my guts truthfully if deposed.
