Big question is what and how do I tell he; if anything at all? Anyone else with experience in this?
The next few weeks will be unpleasant, but its nothing you cant handle. We have all been there, and I am still alive and made it through. Think of it as the price of fare to get over to living how you want to.........free of addiction and all the many, many problems that go with it. Sobriety isnt an event, its a way of life that you must carry and focus on daily. It sure beats the cycle of addiction though, any day, in every way.
