I hope he lives up to his words, that is the only real way to know. I have an ex addict husband and this is something I have dealt with many times. Right from him wanting or saying he was wanting help to having the suitcase packed on our way to treatment and him jumping out of the car on the way there.
Today I am dealing with my son and addiction, he has made some steps to go into treatment and found funding to go...though it is a two week process...he should be going this week...in my option this two week wait is scaring me way to much time to change mind make up stories why he can't or didnt go Though I have learned not to get my hopes up to high to only have them come crashing down. I know even if he gets into treatment there is no gaurantee he will stay ..I know even if he stays there is no gaurantee he will continue with recovery. I know that I have no control over him using or not using, I only have control over me and how I choose to handle the situation.
