So how you doing now? Is the girlfriend being supportive or has she backed off? Many people can't cope, and it's not their fault... some recognise their own falibility in others and some refuse to see it... a very dear friend is in recovery, lived with a woman who wasn't and couldn't see that it was the drink turning her into a psychopath. Her liver started to react and finally she stopped drinking. Regretably it was too late to save their relationship and his bathroom door (she trashed it with a stilleto heel) but saved her life. It was also too late for her to break the behaviour pattern. So now she's a sober psychopath and still screws him for everything she can get from him with emotional blackmail.

Hope it's going better.
