I go along with FMTT and will add that the recovery rate for addicts in general - and that includes alcohol as well as opiates and the like - is very poor. Many of those that are writing on this site will relapse - I am on my third go round. Of those that relapse most don't make it back. Of those that never get here or somewhere similar never make it at all.

I say this to add a dose of reality that you not only need to get started with suggestions such as FMTT has made and you have initiated but also to begin to realize that you may well need to seperate completely.

I have written many a post indicating that inside each addicted fool resides a whole person who if not afraid of withdrawal and life without his DOC would love to come back home. The slippery slope that addiction presents, however, is much easier to slide down than climb up.
