I would give counseling a chance -- just, make sure to convey your concerns about your husband's drinking.

Yes, it may be that my thoughts jumped to the alcohol just because I have so many addicts in my family but OP's description did make me wonder if that is an issue.

OP here- DH's drinking is definitely an issue. He never has just one drink. Drinks heavily at every event where alcohol is served. Will down a 6 pack in less than an hour.

That is an alcoholic's drinking pattern.
