[quote=Anonymous]People with addiction issues tend to replace one addiction with another. So now he's addicted to AA, as another poster said. It would help him to be in therapy with someone experienced with addiction and good at uncovering and healing the core damage that left him with this gnawing psychic pain and void he's trying to medicate. I don't know how old your kids are, but I've done the heavy lifting all my kids' lives because of this stuff, and it's exhausting. At a certain point I did explain to them generally that their father needed to go to therapy appointments and his support meetings because he was trying to get stronger and do better. They lived with the downsides of his behaviors and issues over the years, and they witness the improvements he's made. Take all the help you can get, because you will have to be strong for a long time.[/quote]
