oops, and to answer your other question, we had already been divorced many years (five, maybe?) before we had to stick him in rehab...
He is a Narcissist who never got over the fact that I left him- then his father died, then his mother died. By the time his mom had been dead for a couple of months (and he never had cut himself from her apronstrings), he was a mess. Oh, yeah, and he had lost his job, too... Oh, yeah, and his brother overdosed and died (maybe accidently, maybe not) on the leftover morphine he stole from the house when he had come home for their mother's funeral...
And all the while he was feeding himself the most powerful depressant there is... alcohol. And he wondered why he "couldn't get out of this depression" and was put on blood pressure meds and AD's...
He was definitely in a bad way all the way around...
