Just wanted to add that i know that it is BS this "excuse" about his job. i know that a normal person would talk to their spouse so that they could have a plan if the other needed to find a new, less demanding job.
I was reading the book "Addictive thinking", and it seems that this is his mind validating that it is ok to use to get through your work....that it is just an excuse.....
So i guess he really thinks this, that he really does need the drugs to do his job and he sees no other way out----his mind is deceiving him.....
IS that true??? or does he know it is an excuse ?? he says that it is not pleasurable to him..that he "doesnt get high"..it makes him tense like drinking twelve cups of coffee---
that he needs this "edge" to do his job".....
but if its not pleasurable, why do it? why risk everything ?? it doesnt make sense to me--but to him i guess it does.......

??????????????????????

IF anyone understands this, or if you think im on the right track, could you just let me know??
thanks!!!
