I just read your post and thought to myself..wow..at least he did admit to someone that he has a problem. I've been through hell and back with my son since he was 15 (he's now 32) and he has YET to admit that he has a problem. Maybe it's a first step insomuch as he has admitted it...I don't know.
Just my thoughts when I compare the denial coming from mine. Perhaps his girlfriend doesn't realize the seriousness in what he's telling her. I'm so glad he said NO. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
