[QUOTE="rebelson, post: 694207, member: 19966"] RN, yes, it is his 1st time in any type of 'official' treatment. He has had many sober stints (6+ month long ones) over the 9yrs, but 'most' of them were mandated (probation for some legal troubles). Beginning earlier this year, I think he was 'getting tired' of the drinking, using lifestyle. He'd text me a picture of a new 'white chip' every few weeks or months...and then he'd relapse. It happened 3 or 4 times back in Jan. thru March - which is when he got real and entered detox. Of course the owner of the home where he rented the room, was an older man who had an afternoon cocktail and would offer son one almost daily. That sure didn't help! I think he realized, "I need to get outta here if I wanna get sober." My son has been so much nicer, even kind while he has been in this sober treatment. It just confirms that all that nastiness, disrespect from him during these past 9 'using' years, was from just that - using. [/QUOTE]
