[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm under a lot of stress everywhere: work, baby toddler. I've been drinking too much and I know it. My amazing dh of 12 years has no idea and I've been sneaking alcohol around him. I feel like he hasn't noticed because of the same stressors. He travels Monday -Thursday which means he's checked out if the hard bits. I've been trying to stop and can't. I've been thinking I need him on my side to motivate and  encourage me but I'm worried he will be a drinking nazi and never let me have a drink again. I'm ready to cut back significantly but don't want him to get upset at a glass of champagne at a wedding.

I'm not interested in judgment. I have enough judgment on myself already. Anyone been here or was the spouse in this situation? [/quote]

I am not in exactly the same situation, but I understand. I come home and sometimes just WANT to get trashed. I mean, I just want to drink to excess and feel numb and happy and forget everything.

I think you need to talk with your DH and tell him what you are doing, and that you want his support, that you don't want a drinking nazi. You should figure out before you talk exactly HOW you want him to support you, so you can tell him exactly what to do. That's helpful on the receiving end.[/quote]
