[quote=Anonymous]For those still following this thread, any experience (in your own life, as a prosecutor, what have you) of things changing once the abuser is sober? I realize that DH is an alcoholic, he knows it too. Our marriage counselor has helped us identify a lot of reasons why we believe both act (and react) the way we do. Therapy has also helped me recognize that while the physical violence hasn’t happened in a while, and is infrequent, he is still violent. I never considered throwing things to be so bad, I thought, at least he’s not coming after me. But that is still out of control, and I recognize we can’t continue like this. We have kids and I can’t ignore the damage this is doing this them any longer. But could reconciliation be possible and/or wise to consider if he were sober? Almost every incident I can think of, he was drinking. He started going to AA, he knows he needs help. Could it ever improve?[/quote]
