This is the first time I've ever joined a group. I have no idea where to even
start. My husband is an alcoholic and it is ruining our relationship. When he
drinks a lot he gets very mean. He has never hit me, but the verbal abuse and
mental abuse is bad. He can drink 17 beers in less than 5 hours. He tells me I
make it a problem, because he doesn't have one. I just feel so alone at times.
He seems to have either a split personality or major mood swings. I have talked
to him several times regarding his drinking and nothing seems to help. I know he
loves me, but he needs the alcohol more than he needs me it seems. I just hate
living like this. I won't go out with him anymore because he gets so verbally
abusive to me. I am just looking for any ideas on how to help him. I'm hoping
someone might be able to give me some advice on how to handle this. I have so
much to say and none of it is good but it all has to do with his drinking. He is
his worst enemy that is for sure. If anyone has any
ideas, please let me know. I feel like I'm drowning.

Thank you,
Susan
