You are not pathetic. You are married to someone who is mentally unwell. You are loyal and have tried to be patient and understanding. You just have to get to a point where you can see it’s enabling him by being a known soft place to fall. Likely loosing that will be his rock bottom. I can’t promise, but it will help you to detach from his crazy which is needed.
You are an awesome woman, spouse, and mom. He is preying in your kindness in some ways because he is in active addiction. He knows if it all falls apart there you are. He needs to feel that is gone. It may not change anything so you must believe in what you are doing for your own sake.
