Hi Debbie,
No he didnt attend any meetings, hes not really very good at talking or listening in fact! No online meetings.
He said it was VERY hard for the first few months, then hard for a few more months, He started to see what life was like without it having a hold of him, he was either thinking about doing it, getting it, hanging around with like minded people who were not true friends, doing it, or recovering from doing it…. or thats how it felt!
He was using most days at work and in the evening if he was out, and he would often find a reason to be out trust me! I don’t know how much, mostly not huge volumes, but then some nights it was more I guess.
He hasnt drunk alcohol since he stopped, its a trigger, lowers his guard, and generally the two went hand in hand. Lockdown helped him stop partly. He has a hole in his septum, and I think thats what made him stop really, because he could afford it, and thats also why he had a lot of hangers on around him.
What extent do you think your husband’s problem is?
