Being done??

My husband is addicted to pain pills. He has been trying to stay clean for over a year with NA (2 meetings a day, 1 month of Vivitrol, etc.). He has continued to fail and feels defeated. He keeps asking me....."how do you know when you're really done?" I told him he really needed to go back to NA and talk to other recovering addicts because I really don't have an answer. He did go to a meeting tonight for the first time in a couple of weeks to talk to some people. But now I am left wondering.....HOW DID YOU KNOW YOU WERE DONE? Was their a spiritual awakening? Was the pain greater then the fear? Where you just sick and tired of being sick and tired? What did it take to finally get it??
