[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 463566"] I'm so sorry. I switched jobs very recently, but was working with substance abuse/abusers before that for six months and did notice that in the GREAT majority of the cases, there were other things going on like depression, bipolar illness and/or personality disorder (s). I would say in about 99% of the cases. As long as she is using, it will be more difficult to treat any under lying illnesses. We provided therapy and things like depression were addressed along with addiction. It did seem to make some inroads. I hope and pray she does both the inpatient and the outpatient programs. Special prayers for your family. Surely, this has had to be very hard for you and your hubby. Remember the Serenity Prayer. It comes from a place of truth and empowerment. [/QUOTE]
