We are both music industry professionals. She has had to completely leave the scene due to its natural environment of drinking and drugging. Even living in the City is too much for her "temptation" right now. Which I understand and respect.
She is so afraid of a mental relapse its keeping her locked away from a life she needs.
If she uses "pot, drugs or alcohol" she is at risk for becoming manic. She has fallen so hard and was Hypo Manic and Manic for almost 3 years until now when she sought rehab and now AA for sobriety. She is miserable and has to isolate from her career and friends.
I can be a strong hold for her and even give her a creative place to live but she feels she is still at risk for relapse just being in an around the city and others who might drink or use pot. Even if its not at our home. Which could mean her insanity would return.
AA doesn't give her any leeway. I am very familiar with the program. It will keep her sober for now but at the cost of her not having a life that is her true soul. I am trying to find a middle ground for her. If she doesn't use addictively should could potentially live a normal life.
If anyone has any insight that would be a great help. If anyone knows anyone on Baclofen that is Bipolar please reach out. I of course understand that she could not be on medications that would conflict with Bac. Also Baclofen does not help with all addictions. For me it did.
Any and all thoughts. Thank you so much!
