I understand that this is a very difficult time, 6 weeks into recovery, while a great accomplishment on his part, is really no time at all.

What are you doing for yourself to counter the effects of being in a relationship with an active alcoholic? That you are reading and posting here is wonderful, but I guarantee that if you focus on yourself, and your own recovery from being involved with this terrible disease, you will ultimately find some inner peace, and no longer feel the need to monitor your AH.

Al-anon, SR and a great therapist have helped me so much. We need to heal as well; and monitoring and attempting to control our alcoholic loved ones is a tough habit to break, but the rewards of doing so are innumerable.

My best to you. Glad you have found us.
