F/U to previous post. My sisters lawyer just called me.
He is now suggesting that she does stay in rehab longer or go into a sober living facility. I asked him about his comment that it would hurt her chances of seeing her kids in the long run and he said that it will hurt her more if she comes out and starts using again and he suspects that there is a good chance of that since none of the circumstances have changed that led her to use.
I would be so happy if she stayed in rehab or a sober living place and not have her come to live in my home. I'm terrified of her living with me right now.
She might not listen to him, but at least I feel like I have some support now.
Please tell me that at some point all of this gets easier. I'm a therapist and I have to deal with such raw emotions at work everyday and now that I'm dealing with this in my home life I'm just drowning.
