He didn’t stay sober for long and doesn’t think going again will help. He goes to AA meetings for few days but then gets back to drinking. It on and off mostly drinking and not going to meetings.

Question by Jason: My wife has deprssion and general anxiety disorder and we are expecting our first baby? We have been planning to have a baby for about a year it finally happened 6 months ago so she is 6 months pregnant but she has depression and anxiety before getting pregnant. She had to stop taking her medicine for obvious reasons and she was coping well at the beginning but lately she hasn’t been doing well. Her mood swings have become extremely severe and she is throwing fits all of the time now. Yesterday she got overwhelmed and she was crying and panicking and telling me “I need my medicine, I can’t do this anymore I need my medicine” when she gets like this I try to tell her she has to stick this out with me for the baby and I tell her to just breathe and relax sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t. I usually try to get her to cuddle with me in order to keep her calm. Is there anything else I can do when she gets like this? Read more... ...
