Well i know that an abusive relationship canbe tough but it is good that you are out of it and it would be wise that you stay out of it no matter how much u love him... I have struggled over the past 4 years with ans alcoholic boyfriend and it is just not a good way of life. Breaking up with someone you love can be one of the hardest things you will ever do but one of the best for you... You just have to find a higher power and realize that you are better than that and definatley deserve better, so all i have to say is when you get down about your boyfriend and what to drink or nethingelse negative just think to yourself i can do this and i dont need him or the alc. and go out meet new people because the only sure way to get over sombody is to find somebody new, hope this was helpful..

He's not even worth your time, let alone getting upset about him. Seriously. Anyone that beats up on their gf is a piece of s***.

When you feel the urge to drown your sorrows, take a walk, call your bestie and talk about it, chew some gum, do housework. The key thing is to distract yourself from drinking.

Remember that you're moving on to better things.

Good luck :)
