Coming Home
Hi everyone,
My husband has been in rehab for the past month. Three years ago he relapsed, oxy's being his DOC, and he's been in detox 3 times since. He has now been in a rehab facilitation, focusing on the 12 steps. I haven't seen him since I dropped him off, and am now getting ready to the end of the week. I have been able to focus on me, and the past month has been a wonderful one. Last night, the emotions got going, and I think I am just so nervous in anticipation. He is coming home to live in a sober house for however long he needs to. I know we both need to take this a day at a time, I also need to figure out how and if this can stay in my life. If I stay in this marriage, how will this work? I know you can't answer that, that just seems to pop out of my mind???
Just needed to get that out

Katylyn, It is a one day at a time program. So that's just what you do. And remeber his recovery is his to work. You focus on you. Not sure if you have been to Ala-non or Nar-anon meetings, they would be very beneficial to you.
