I can relate to this feeling, my partner is the exact same and it’s draining me. My blood pressure went up to 250, I’m now on medication for life, I feel like everything revolves around drinking. I know I’m not much help but the doc did say until they hit rock bottom and want to help themselves there’s nothing we can do. Is there any chance she can maybe move out?

Thank you for your reply

I wish she could move out but not sure where she would go

Unsure if to contact social services thinking they may allocate her a social worker

Mental health really don’t want to know as they have enough to deal with

So who is it that help us. It’s her addiction not mine

GP don’t know enough about the subject to help really. They just prescribe antidepressants which most of the time they don’t take due to being drunk most of the time and not remembering

I wish I could talk to a recovering alcoholic so they maybe able to enlighten me on how it works , but I expect it’s different for each individual

I’ve spent 12,000 on rehab but that also only works for any length of time if they want it too

I’ve been to AA meetings with her and listened to people sharing but you are not allowed to speak as you are not the addict

I’m beginning to waffle a bit now sorry
