Hi Navy
Right, I understand now!
The situation is more precarious than I thought. I thought he had accepted he had a problem and was trying to come clean.
If this has been forced upon him then great at least he maybe able to seek clarity regarding his past. A little concerned that he doesn’t appear to be taking ownership of this.
You won’t need me to tell you but its down to the individual so please don’t beat yourself up about what a grown man decides to do.
Please check back in and let us know how it goes.
Good Luck
