[QUOTE="ML, post: 235975"] I am so glad you are seeing a counselor on this. The dysfunctional dynamics of addiction are rather familiar to me. For me it was husband's alcoholism. Blaming someone else, usually the spouse for everything is SOP. All I can say is that getting help for yourself and difficult child has to come first. husband can get help or not, that's up to him. I am glad you have an apt set up, this is a good first step. I was SHOCKED when husband started going to AA meetings, I only mention this because there truly is hope. I am thinking of you and sending prayers and good thoughts. Also, I loved gcv mom's suggestion about taking care of things and getting a sitter was brilliant because it was in her husband's face that he wasn't being counted on. Love, ML [/QUOTE]
