Hi 4m. I'm pleased to read that your W seems to have emerged from the fog somewhat. It is positive that she is taking some responsibility for her own wellbeing and recognises that she needs some help. Not relying on someone else (OP) for that is a positive step forward.
That said, it sounds like really early days and it's best to keep your own expectations very low. We all know how difficult it can be to face your own problems, and how easy, addictive the OP can be....so there may be some backsliding yet....Equally, it doesn't sound as though your W has got to the stage where she wants to recommit to the M. It sounds as though this is more about digging herself out of the black hole in order that she can decide what to do. And that takes space and time I think.
Still, it's a positive direction that things have taken. If you keep your focus mainly on you and your own life, and keep DBing and being the dad you want to be, things are going to turn out well whichever way.
Keep posting and take care :-)
