good news on your status!....you have to deal with one thing at a time;and your health is #1.......as grandma use to say"without your health,you don't have anything..........cheers to your health& new life..
On mars we have an old saying " it doesn't matter where we have been, that is only where we have gone. It doesn't matter what we have done, that is only what we did, and it raelly doesn't matter where we are at,that is only where we are. The only real question is what are we going to do now? Running off a relapsed alcoholic is A pretty good place to start. Hang in there.

Good for you! I hear the conviction in your voice, and though nothing worth obtaining is easy, I know in my heart you'll make it!
You are correct. I have never been a real easy to live with. I am a hard driving female who has accomplished many goals: from teen IV drug use to college, good job and 15 years in marraige. Anyway.. what the tx did was force me to start to learn about how alcholism effects the family. Being the kid of very mean alcholholic you would of thought I would understand the issues. My mother shot my dad when I was 16 because he was drunk. He lived. I freaked out when my husband began to be obessesed with alchol.. I began a nagging control freel. I saw his obsesseions taking over, his moodness increased, and he began to blame me and find fault in how I was. Why... because he is not happy with himself. He will figure this out some day. I am free now.. to move on.
cheers
You bring up a very positive solution. I did several times remind my husband that I was on these strange drugs and that my moods .. behavior were altered. My picking on him about his drinking may or may be an illusion as I really don't see the world right at this time. Tx..brought up alot of old issues of mine. Memories of my past with my extremly violent alchoholic farther began to surface. So my husbands drinking did drive me nuts because I saw a very goodlooking man put on 50 pounds over a periord of a year. He began to look haggaged and tiered and i began to resent his problem. Life became too complicated with these alchohol issues. I became a co-dependent and got caught in the alchohlic cycle of rescue/resentment/ and anger. Now he is angry with me and and wants away from me. He is an electrical engeener with a very good company. He will be popular with the girls because they think he has money from his stock... etc. I say.. I think I set his circut off. My goal is learn what I learned from TX. My issues surfaced for a reason. I will move on and hopefully prosper.
Thanks so much1
