Prayers that tomorrow will go well. I am a little nervous about it.

Ahhh you'll be just fine. My doc was meth, it took me a good 9-12 months of whining and crying before I even began to stop getting those horrible cravings. He's still in rehab? His brain is still probably trying to function w/out the drugs, I cried a lot, & a I never cry...
Ask these ladies here, I was an emotional wreck in the beginning.
I didn't know what to do w/myself...... (still dont 1/2 the time)
lol, but in the beginning your emotions are just a mess.
It takes a long time for your brain to "GET" that you don't
need drugs to live. Once you do that to yourself,
You really screw yourself for a long time. Your brain is
powerful, it has a Hard time understanding 'Logic'... lol
I know how hard that is to understand when you haven't been
addicted to some kind of drug before. But you really begin
to believe you will die w/out the drug...
Do you know what defragmenting your computer is? That's kind of what it's like, lol, your brain has to put itself back together, and it's discombobulated in the process. I remember coming here on my 9 month anniversary saying I felt like I'd just given birth, (i never have, but....)
Take what he says and does w/a grain of salt.....
On one hand his emotions are very real, he's feeling them probably
more than he ever has, but don't take anything personal, don't
let him manipulate you, Just love him, If that makes sense....
He's sooo fortunate to be able to be in rehab, so many people
don't get that opportunity... Don't even think of taking
it away from him, No matter what he says to you....... ;-) (JMO)
One of my favorite quotes is you teach people how to treat you...
Set the tone for that now.. ;-)
You'll do great!! Let us know how it goes!!
