Hi,

I hope my rambling’s won’t cause boredom, but any help would be really appreciated.

I’m a flight attendant attendant in India and I’m really concerned about my husband due to his alcoholism. Work keeps me away from home on most of the days but whenever I come home I find him lying drunk or else in the bar around the corner. He even showed up at the airport totally sloshed a few times which was big embarrassment for me and my collegues.

He has a stable job in a reputed firm but these days with work from home he drinks through the day while working as well. He literally is in the same suit and tie for 3-4 days at a stretch and even from 10 feet away I can smell the alcohol on him.

It’s especially difficult when we’re out and I’m in my uniform as the people around all can smell him which may tarnish the airlines reputation.I avoid going out with him in uniform but sometimes he comes to pick me up and we have a coffee or some food and then it really gets difficult. I was double checked twice at the airport because my clothes smelled of drink: reason being, just as I was leaving for the airport he turned up drunk and I helped put him on the bed and cleaned his alcohol mess.

I love the guy, but do I manage my job and him. I just get frustrated at times.
