Hello,

Experiencing the same. Personally was shielded from the majority of things from my mum so I wouldn’t see him or talk to him when he was in a state AS MUCH as I would have. While your dad’s addiction seems stemmed from anxiety, and potentially by having non alcoholic beverages at home it could be a start…personally I’m going to speak to my mum about this as think its one way of helping the situation and then by using an app on his phone.

I tried to get my dad into a new hobby but it didn’t work, so trying to see at what FITNESS changes can be done because he might start to feel better about himself and then alone after feeling good…make choices without being pushed.

His family don’t help and just say ‘my poor son, my poor brother’ but I partially blame them for a lack of action and depending on bloody prayers. With no disrespect to religious individuals its just something like this needs action, planning, communication.
