Alcoholism Support Group
Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life. If you think alcohol is causing you to lose control, it's time to seek help. Our group is a safe place to vent, check in, get back up if you fall, and reach sobriety.

Me and my husband have been together for 4 years. We have drank together this whole time. I am more of a social drinker. I may drink 2-4 times a month. Like if we go out to eat or a group of us gets together. My husband as drank every day. At first it was a 12 pack a night, when I asked him to quit he started drinking less, now maybe 3-8 beers a night. We've been having some problems, we recently had our first child and it has added some stress to our relationship. The past 3 times he's drank alot he has said mean things to me that hurt my feelings. I don't want that to start up again so I told him that I wanted us to quit drinking completely. So he wants to drink even less but still not quit. Yesterday he came in and I could tell he had already started drinking. But acted as if the beer he opened was his first one. I found out today that he drank the whole way home from work and then lied to me when I said something to him about it. I feel like he as a problem. He says he don't he just don't want to quit. His grandpa was an alcohlic and died from passing out on train tracks and getting ran over. I fear he my get worse and be like his grandpa. Do you think he has a problem or am I just putting to much into it?

Sad thing is that you can't make him get sober. Your love won't work, neither will threat of losing his job, or jail, or health. He has to want to get sober before he even has a small hope in hell of doing that.
Make a decision for yourself and maybe the shocking thought of losing his wife and children might, and I mean might, help him decide to want to want to be sober.
