Flame, Something else that I do that has been so helpful with me in dealing with my addict is that I do not communicate with my AH at all if he is high..

When My AH gets high, I leave the house or I find something constructive to do with my time.. I don't talk to him, sit in the same room with him and I certainly do not try to reason with him.. I used to get mad but now I just do my own thing... it has made things so much easier for me..
