[quote=Anonymous]OP here, thanks. Yes it’s hard to know how much of this is injury, addiction withdrawal, depression. She started a new antidepressant two weeks ago so hopefully that will kick in soon. Her docs are not suspecting chemical alcohol or nicotine withdrawal any more (they treated her in rehab). But she is still emotionally addicted to drinking and smoking and has never accepted that. She’s not going to start now. We were hoping that this imposed break from substance abuse would break the cycle but she’s determined to get back to her old life. Even though her doctors have told her that chain smoking most likely caused her stroke and puts her at great risk for another.[/quote]
