Hi there,
I'm new here. My boyfriend and I have been together for 3 years. I've always known he was a bit of a heavy drinker but I never thought too much of it. I don't drink at all so I always assumed I was over reacting.
The other night he broke down and told me he's been drinking a 60 every other day for almost a year. I had no idea. He never seems intoxicated and he functions perfectly. He doesnt drive (he got pulled over slightly over the limit last year and we havent renewed his dl yet).
He has asked me for help. I've been making tons of calls and gotten little help. So here I am looking for some methods to help him break the cycle. He's tried to do this on his own once but the pain and feeling like he was going to have a heart attack was too much for him.
Hopefully we can find some answers here.

he's luck to have your support, as so many people have to do it alone! You should encorrage him to make a profile of his own and take the first step in getting getting himself sober. There are so many people with greeat advice and positive advice for him to draw from here. With some time and commitment on his part he could have a quit plan up and running in no time if he's ready to make the change.
