[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 694646, member: 15801"] Well he certainly seemed serious a year ago.... and I think he was to a point. He knew he needed detox and he asked for it. He knew drinking was a problem and admitted it. He did well for a while and was proud of being sober for 3 months. He seemed to gain some insight.... and then he relapsed and started the cycle again. So I just don't know. He knows the right things to say and how to play the game so I am not really sure I will know. He seems to do well for about 3 months and then tends to lose his motivation to stay clean. I agree it needs to come from within. It is hard because he is across the country so I don't see him all the time. I know when he is doing well our interactions are different and right now they are not good... and he is not communicating with us. So I am pretty certain he is using regularly and not doing well....but the next time he wants treatment I think he might be serious but I don't know if it will last. [/QUOTE]
