My AH said many times that he had a problem and was going to do something about it. But by the next day, he felt differently. Each time, I would get so excited that he had finally seen the light, only to be disappointed again and again. Sometimes I wonder if they aren't comfortable in their addiction. The prospect of never drinking again seemed to terrify him. I finally accepted Step One, and sought help for myself.
Same as me.....conversation after conversation....good deep in the soul kind of talks. Went to bed happy would maybe have one or two days of happiness and thinking that THIS is finally it but of course I was wrong for the 200th time again. Duh....he is not going to be able to do this on his own unless he seeks help from AA or seeks some type of treatment and Really has hit his rock bottom.
He is not ready to do this.....told me it the other day....so I am walking away. Very hard to do but it has to be done.
