Hey

Your story sounds so similar to mine with my Fiancé. He can go for days without drink (only ever drinks wine) but then binges and it’s becoming worse during this lockdown. He is also on medication for depression which isn’t helping and I’m also just so exhausted with it all.

He’s been pretty much drinking since Friday afternoon and last night I’d had enough and told him if he didn’t address this things were over and we should put house up for sale- tbh he was so drunk he didn’t seem to care and he just started to get really unpleasant which I’m sure he’ll regret when he sobers. I do love him and really don’t want it to come to this ( infact we are booked to get married abroad next year) but just want the man I fell in love with back. I don’t know where to go from here as it’s really impacting our relationship and he doesn’t seem to care or be doing much about it. How do you cope?
