No chance, he is very angry with himself, I offered to help him taper off, I've had loads of exp as you know... Not interested only wants to do it his own way so all my unused medication is now securely out of sight. I'm hoping he should be ok, I don't think he had used them as a crutch for long.
Saw his psych yesterday, he says she has said they are on the brink of a breakthrough. While it scares him, I think it also offers hope. Meanwhile I'm getting fat again with all the sweets, chocolate etc he is buying to assuage his cravings.

If he comes up with the language ######, you can tell him how wonderful you think he is trying to cut back this way. You know it's not easy; but are very proud of him. (Do you think that might work??)
