My STBXAH was a binge drinker as well, so I understand exactly what you mean about things feeling as if they were going back to normal in-between binges. It's a special kind of crazy.
Yes, to answer your question, I think one should practice the principles of detachment at
all times. I think it makes for a healthier relationship.
