My boyfriend started going to AA on Tuesday... his last drunk was Monday. He's getting into it, and he's doing really well, so far. My problem is that I just went back on meds on May 26, and the side affects are still beating my backside. He has a bad dream, and he calls me... repeatedly, until I answer the phone. We talk, he feels like he can sleep again, and we get off the phone. Sleep elludes me for awhile, and when I get back to sleep, I end up sleeping way later than I intended. That gets him aggitated because he says all I'm doing is sleeping the day away and he needs support. I'm no stranger to AA... at one time, I was three plus years sober, and I was the clubhouse manager for a year... but as far as supporting him, I'm at a loss.
