Last straw? When I learned, and
accepted that she would never hit her bottom while we were together. I wasn't willing to "go down with the ship".
How long? Two years to learn about the disease and the effects on the family as well as my part in the dance, (and change my behavior) AND give her two chances at rehab. After that it took several months to wait for and arrange the logistics of separation. After that it was almost a year until the divorce was final.
