You can do this Tlo. There is no arguing with insanity...and that is where active addicts seem to live, most of the time. And we either allow them to bring us into the insanity with them or at some point we have to say enough. You tried. You loved him and you tried. But no amount of love from any of us will make our addicts want recovery. They have to love themselves. They have to choose to live.

You can do this. One minute by one hour by one day... and eventually the days will get easier.
