[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 550876, member: 59"] What did she want to talk about last night Kathy? One of the substance abuse counselors when difficult child was in rehab told us that addicts have a huge capacity for alcohol, they can hold their liquor better than anyone and takes a long time for anyone to notice they are drunk. I am reminded about my father who was a serious alcoholic and he too was mean when he drank. I was dating husband at the time and would get so upset when husband was over and my dad would come home and I would tell husband that he was drunk. husband would always say he didn't think he was drunk, he never noticed it unless dad was falling down or slurring his words. I could tell just by looking at him or by little behaviors that no one else would notice. I also remember at easy child's graduation and I let difficult child have a couple beers. I found out later she had at lease 12 beers and didn't believe it because she looked fine. You or I would never be able to function if we had as much to drink as they do. Nancy [/QUOTE]
