Teggie,
I am happy to hear that your guy is looking into his own recovery. For you, just take it slow. One day at a time. It takes a while for us to start getting our feet on the ground and get comfortable focussing on our own recovery. I have a tendency to lose perspective when something good or something bad happens. They recomend in Al-Anon not to make any major decisions for a year. I decided that I would work on my recovery for a year and let my H do what he was going to do for that time, and then see where we were at that time. That didn't mean I was going to put my life on hold. But it helped me relax and take the pressure off me to "fix" the situation. Just make a decision to stay focussed, no matter how tempting it is to get distracted. The person you owe the most attention to now is you. Hugs, Magic
