A recovering alcoholic may manipulate their sober spouse by using guilt, blame, or emotional manipulation to divert attention away from their own struggles with addiction. They may also manipulate through deception, lying, or minimizing the impact of their actions on the relationship. It's important for the sober spouse to set and maintain healthy boundaries and seek support from professionals or support groups.

Is Strattera advisable even if you are a recovering alcoholic and bulimic?

I am both a recovering alcoholic and bulimic. I have absolutely no appetite on strattera, so it should not trigger any bulimic behavior. I have just over a year sober and have had no desire to drink since taking the medication. So for me, strattera has not had any negative effect on either affliction. Good luck!

It does seem sort of strange for a recovering alcoholic to go out in the middle of the night on dark bike rides and then return home. A sober person who has been sober for over a year might be having a relapse if he or she is leaving the house in the middle of the night.

Does Dylan mcdermott smokes?

It is not clear that he does. While many of his characters in movies and on TV are smokers, that does not mean he smokes in real life. He has been pictured smoking cigarettes and cigars, but again, whether this is his character or whether he likes to smoke is not something he discusses. We do know, however, that he is a recovering alcoholic who has been sober for about 20 years.

Is an alcoholic capable of making relationship decisions?

When they are sober they may be very good relationship deciders. But alchohol is not predictable and i suggest you dump him if he is an alchoholic. Why is because he could be a raging drunk and you do not want to get mixed up in that. You cant just date when he is being sober and you can do better:]
