Hi and welcome to the forum! I'm from the "other side" (I'm an alcoholic in recovery).....
Just wanted to give you some encouragement........ I spent 30 days in treatment myself and it was the best thing I've every done for myself. The first few weeks home, however, were a bit scary. It's like returning to the "scene of the crime" where reality hits you once again and now you don't have your coping mechanism.
It's great that you realize it's going to take time..... and your husband is lucky to have someone who is concerned and supportive. I think all you can do is give him some space/time right now.
Early sobriety is often a period of rollercoaster emotions for us. We're happy one minute, sad the next, irritable the next..... it really does get better (as long as we stay sober, of course). It sounds like he's working hard at it, so there's every reason to be positive!
