[QUOTE="CrazyinVA, post: 467000, member: 1157"] I think you're right about his reasons for not signing the release for you. For whatever reason, this may be what *he* needs in order to get and stay sober. At least he signed a release for husband, so you won't be completely in the dark (even though it feels that way at this particular moment). Your "rescue response" is being cut off at the pass and I know that feels totally unnatural.. but honestly it may be what *you* need in order to continue your own "recovery." Keep going to al-anon, read some codependency books (Codependent No More is excellent, I re-read that often), and do your best to focus on you and what you can do, vs. what you can't do. Stay busy. Remember that "no news is good news" ... if he's still there, he's on the right path. Nothing you can do or say will change that one way or the other. Hugs. [/QUOTE]
