The way society treat addiction is horrible, addicts need treatment and the whole system expecting them to just tough it out without ever building proper support systems is just setting them up to fail.

And most ressources to help addicts are generally faith based and don't actually work.

Really proud of you and your husband for going sober!

Honestly, he really did the hard work. He realized his addiction while still young and sought help. But detox was still necessary.

I was never much of a drinker but became a (so gross to say this) “wine mom” in my 30’s. One glass while making dinner, one glass with dinner, one glass once my chores were done and I could “relax”. Much easier (but still no cake walk) to quit.
