Hello friends,
I spent some time here with you last summer. My husband was in a really bad shape at that time with IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and was self-medicating with alcohol. He ended up in detox after a two week binge. He abstained for about a week and then worked himself back up to a mega problem drinker with depression and anxiety.. he has few interests and not much of a life. I can't watch him disintegrate and I am seeking marriage counseling (he won't go at this time) and he now knows I will not stay here and watch indefinitely. Of course he doesn't want me to leave and I don't want to either (he's my whole family after being together for 27 yrs.).. I just ordered a few moderation related books on Amazon.. He said he'll read them and start a plan.. We'll see..
I am a problem drinker but nowhere like him. I'd like to cut down for weight reasons more than anything else, and to be a good role model for him.. I will read the books, too!
Wish us luck and I wish you all the best!!
