I hear you. I think I understand. I'm still in treatment & have people around me who are "through" treatment. Don't they understand that there isn't a cure for any of this?

I've quit drinking & quit smoking but still have to fight the urge to some degree. Depression isn't a whole lot different. We'll always have our triggers. We can always tumble again.

I'm sorry you're going through this. I'm really sorry he thinks he's being such a good friend yet can't see what the effect is that he's having on you. It sounds as if he's really quite oblivious.
