[QUOTE="Steely, post: 469335, member: 3301"] Ditto what upallnight said. I certainly don't want you to be scared to pieces over this post, though. He is in a bit of danger, but a lot of people lead their lives this way. Sounds like his coping skill is work - move and do all the time - until you pass into bed exhausted. It is a great way to escape reality. I see my Mom do it everyday, and on that note she is 68 - so most people that do this do not have heart attacks - they just miss out on a lot of life. I am not sure what to tell you in regards to getting him help. Sounds like he is already a Dr so he knows physically what is good for him and what is not. Perhaps just gentle reminders that this workalcoholic lifestyle is a coping mechanism for escaping reality - and you miss him being present in you and the kids life. [/QUOTE]
