My EXAH never did embrace recovery despite going through rehab. He was relieved of his addictions 4 years ago when he died from complications due to AIDS.

I believe God does listen to prayers, but he also gives man free will.

Until the addict is ready to help him/herself, there isn't much God can do.

I will never forget the day I dropped to my knees crying and told God I could NOT live that way anymore.

That is when the journey of my own recovery began.

I was willing to do whatever it took to achieve long-term sobriety and I have for 21 years now.

Your husband's self-will stands in the way of any healing, and will continue to do so.

You deserve so much better hon. Sending you hugs of support.
