|
|
Hi!
I believe my husband has a drinking problem, but he believes there is no problem, as we live in a drinking culture and his friends are right there with him.
I have spoken to our doctor about it and she called him a functional alcoholic. I told my husband about my suspicion and our doctor's opinion about it. The result of that conversation was that I have to bring him proof that his drinking is excessive. I am not allowed to take our doctor's advice, as he believes she is too conservative, and I am not allowed to get anything online. |

I think he needs to see the problem for himself or the consequences of his habit. |

"Helping an alcoholic is hard enough, but it is possible. Only a loving loved one can help in such a situation. Those who try to help an alcoholic solve some problems of their own (e.g. housing) will achieve nothing. Love alone is not enough to help you get rid of your worst addiction, and you also need to know what to do. Because it happens that the strongest and noblest human feeling in a given situation forces the relatives of an alcoholic to create a wrong stereotype of their relationship with him. As a result, they only contribute to alcoholism and become co-dependent themselves. I can advise you on the website theluckiestclub.com At one time, it helped me a lot. And the most important rule is if you want to help a person.
""A drinker must solve his problems himself.""" |
