Hi Vixem,
I’m sorry you’re going through this. I’m in a similar situation, with my partner refusing to see his drinking as a problem. While he doesn’t wake up and require a drink right away, he doesn’t see any problem is staying up all night drinking.
Like you, I’m the only person earning in the house, and the benefits he does get, he ends up spending on booze. He finds anything a reason to ‘celebrate’ with a drink, or to ‘drown his sorrows’. It’s so tiring, isn’t it?
