Your welcome, John.  It was one of the hardest things I ever did. At least if you try the "tough love" way you have a chance.  Enabling just adds fuel to the fire. It never works.

 

I hope your friend finds his way back.  I said a prayer for him. It's never too late.

          @qvc2022,   Of course I'll pray for your husband and for you, and for all those who will join together to do their best to help and support you both.   I agree with those who encourage you to find a group, such as Al-Anon, which can provide information, education, guidance...  and sometimes just those crucial hearts and souls that will listen, hear and understand, and a willing shoulder you can lean on.   My heart goes out to you, your husband, and to all those posters who were compassionate and courageous enough to share their stories here.   (((hugs to all of you)))❤️

Prayers for you both. You'll need support as well. We all have stories so we can relate. I waited throughout chilhood for dad to get help. It didn't come until I was an adult and he was ready to change. May your husband be at this place now and you both get your quality life back soon.
