I just read through your post history... this jail stay... to me... sounds like YOUR HP giving you a perfect opportunity to pack his stuff up and finally get him him out of your basement. I would change the locks and let him know that he is no longer welcome in my home... and then, I'd get my a$$ to an Al-anon meeting so that I didn't get any crazy ideas that I could save him.

I know you love him, we ALL love the alcoholics in our life. The sad truth is that sometimes that love... does far more harm than good. We unknowingly cushion their falls - keeping them from their bottom, and standing in the way of THEIR HP getting through to them.

It's time to get out of the way of his HP, vtsister. Let go and let god.
