Good questions from Jim.  I also think that having another person as your driving force in life as you describe is a bit dangerous as well.  She is an awesome reason to stay sober but you have to want it for you.  good luck

How many times have you "lapsed"?  What drug?   are you in NA or AA?  I'm an addict myself (prescription pills) recovering after being off over a year I relapsed briefly...it happens to the best of us...not all of us, but it does happen...were there any extenuating circumstances?  Did she tell you to leave?
