MLC & Alcoholic

[Rose888]

With my husband, bringing in friends would have backfired. Big time.

Likewise, trying to convince him that he is believing a made-up story would not have worked.

I know detachment is hard. My counselor helped me a lot with this. Also, getting out of the house (even with kids) helped.

On another thread, someone suggested to think of it as attaching to your own life, rather than detaching from his. That might help.
