I hope you don't feel shut down by my comments above, that wasn't my intention at all.

I DO completely understand your wanting to have him sober and in recovery, totally get that but what people are saying here is that isn't really an option (until he decides to do that). I guess what you are asking is if he does drop by to sleep on the couch, do you call the police and have him arrested? Honestly I don't know what I would do in that situation.

In no way do I see anyone here judging you, in case you are picking up on that, what I do see is a lot of concern for your well being.

Keep posting and working through this. Do you have any other support at all Al-Anon or therapy, any support groups?
