Hi, I have been exactly where you are. It doesn’t matter how hard you try, it’s him that needs to change and try harder. No matter what you do, support, etc he needs to accept he has a problem with alcohol. That is very very hard to accept. It took me years to accept I couldn’t help my husband. I stood by him though and he died 6 wks ago and I am heartbroken. My friends don’t understand how I can miss him with what he’s put me through, but I knew the real person inside who was struggling with his demons. I was his main carer in the end. He suffered. The life a chronic alcoholic leads is not easy. Nor is their main supporters life. I totally understand where you are.
