[quote=Anonymous]OP again.  16:25, do you mind sharing how you nipped it in the bud?

You are right that part of the agreement was therapy.  His first reaction to the discussion with me and his parents was to deny he had a drinking problem but to admit in the past (not the present of course) he had used it as a crutch and that he would see someone nd work on whatever issues led him to need the crutch.  So, that is why I am pushing this.  Unless he does that, and is actively willing to look at himself and figure that out (which he promised me multiple times thereafter he would do - for a solid ten days at least if not longer after the big meeting with his parents), I do not see this going anywhere.

I feel so bad every time I talk to his dad about this.  He always asks me what is going on, and it is so hard to see the tears in his eyes when I tell him.  I do tell him the anger stuff is better, so it isn't all dumping on DH.  I've also told him what my therapist said, but it is getting harder to swallow with each passing blow up.  He made it almost three weeks before asking about having a drink, but the blow ups have been coming faster and faster over the two weeks since then.[/quote]
