I found my exah worse after rehab. He never stopped drinking but he is even feel more entitled and he said he'd had assertiveness lessons with them which made him even more of a bully and nasty and even more selfish. Believe me his ability to assert himself was never an issue. It's all about him now. Always was but even worse. He will do things that are plain wrong and justify them cos his needs are first. I think rehab for him just pandered to him and never really challenged any of his thought processes. I also think he was entitled, selfish and nasty sober...way back when he was about 13. Personality comes into it. I've met some really nice alcoholics. Then there's him.
