Well if your husband is that bad dump him and go to AA. Maybe he’s tired of living with an alchoholic. I did it for 6 years and I had to retire from it. Its exhausting.

.....”Maybe he’s tired of living with an alcoholic. I did it for 6 years and I had to retire from it. Its exhausting.”.....

I’ve often believed it’s harder for family members than it is the alcoholic. I work with a bright young gal with two children who finally left her husband because her daughters had become toddlers and she could see they were being affected by his behavior. Today she has remarried to a wonderful man who loves these little gals like his own. Meanwhile the father remains an alcoholic.

Sometimes no matter what a family member does...it will never change the alcoholic....they have no other choice but to remove themselves from the situation altogether.
