Also wanted to add that, coincidentally, an old friend of mine from the US got back in touch with me through FB. She wants me to refer her for a job in my company. Last time I'd heard from her she said that her H had been through an MLC, moved in with a 20 year old, and so she'd divorced him. I decided to ask her about her experience with this, and she said that everything was out of his system within 6 months. She wishes that she had been more patient and hung in there. Basically by the time that he was back to normal, she felt like she couldn't go back on the D anymore as she was to far down the path. Her advice to me was to hang in there as long as you can bear being uncomfortable. I know your H is maybe too young for a full-blown MLC (I thought mine was too), but still seems like some of the same patterns. I liked her advice, so just wanted to share...:)
