My bad..... He is working on getting better..... so he is not in 'active addiction'......
Sorry.
What I would do with my family - I would say.....
"Thank you - I appreciate your concern; however, this is a personal situation and I'm building up my tool box and I'm getting support." " If I need help - I am grateful to know that I can come to you for advice and support. I have learned that the best advice taken is when someone is firstly asking."
Yeah that would ruffle some feathers- but it certainly got the point across.
