I know NA WORKS
I know it does and I liked it A LOT the only problem with it is my husband has back problems too (yes I realise these are his problems not mine) and he does take pain meds and yes I do think he abuses them but he doesn not feel like he can work or carry the family like he did working his very physical job and another on the side for the past year with me previously being the "breadwinner" and bieng unemployed.
His excuse I hate it and I know. He thinks that in NA I will be told to leave him and break up our family if he continues to take pain meds and drink (which he actually rarely does anymore (drink that is) which he stopped to try to motivate me to stop... but he unfortuantely isnt willing do that with the pain meds and it kills me)
i tell him NO ONE EVER told me to leave him beofe when I went to NA but he really wants me to do it alone.
