First of all let me give you a BIG HUG!! My common law is an alcoholic and has been to rehab more times than I can count since we met 4 years ago..its been a living hell watching the person you love suffer. He has been sober for 13 months but I see him slipping away and there isnt a damn thing I can do about it..it hurts my heart so deeply that somedays I wonder how I will get out of bed..let alone go job hunting...the only thing I HIGHLY recommend if you havent done so already is join AL-ANON...asap!!!! You need the support because unfortunately when you live with someone who is as sick as he is you end up getting just as sick or sicker and need the help too. Without Al-anon I dont know where I would be right now...if you EVER EVER EVER need to talk..PLEASE pm me or we can chat on msn or yahoo...whatever you like..I know where you are at and where you are going..I can be there for you and support you anytime day or night..you can even call me anytime too...DO NOT BE AFRAID TO ASK!!! We all need help when we live with addiction..it is a family disease..
