My partner is an alcoholic and it got really bad at the end of last year where he was leaving the house for a week or even over and just drinking untill he past out. He let me and the kids down big time (week before Christmas) I said I would never ever take him back but as per I felt sorry for him and he was in a bad way when he stopped drinking and I found out his mum was giving him money for drink ???? so when I let him home he went cold Turkey and I locked him in the house when I needed to go to work. It only lasted a few days and since then hes been in a great place and has been about 4 weeks sober. I on the other hand is just waiting for the day. Waiting for the day he let’s me and the kids down and the day I get home from work and hes neglected his fatherly duties and trashed the house. I try and think positive but it’s always there. I always look for the signs..the signs of him acting like a spoilt child throwing his toys out of the pram so it can end up been an excuse or an argument so he can turn round and use that as an excuse or if I say something he doesnt like that will be an excuse. He promised to me he would tell me hes struggling but hasnt and probs wont but we will see. I did tell him I wouldnt live another year like last and the year before so if he does do it again. That will be it.
