i am really happy for the progress you are experiencing. i know it's up and down and emotional and scary. but it is movement. the real recovery begins when he leaves treatment. so it's really good you are getting a counselor for yourself. you'll have much to process as your husband makes his way through the weeks and months ahead. you'll need someone with good, clear feedback as you sort out all the changes.

but recovery is GOOD change, even though it is messy and stressful.

please remember: it's a long road ahead. i always think of it as a battle. and battles take a long time to win. if you want to stay with him, prepare yourself for a long road. the good news is that at least you are on that road.

all the very best. and don't forget your HP.
