[quote=Anonymous]Haven't dealt with a spouse's drinking but I grew up in an alcoholic family and have seen it take its toll on my parents, my brother, and my kid (who is fortunately in recovery now). I'm so sorry you're going through this, OP. I think attending Al-Anon and/or working with a therapist who is knowledgeable about addiction in families would be a good idea. I can't advise you what you should do about your husband (who as you have noted you can't change anyway) except to say that you should get the support you need for whatever decision you make about this situation. If your husband continues down this road, you will have a lot on your plate. Also, if he is addicted to alcohol, there's a possibility that he has passed on a genetic predisposition to your child. You need to know about how this disease works in families so you can take care of your child. Best of luck to you![/quote]
