[quote=Anonymous]My mother realized she was married to an alcoholic when their first offspring was about a year old. There was a job loss, financial problems, a messy car accident and financial problems all stemming from alcohol abuse. She threatened to leave him and he made the decision to join AA, which he was very successful with. He regained his career, they had four more kids and stayed married for decades until my mother's death. Out of five siblings, two have been married to or had long term partners who were alcoholics or addicted to drugs (medical profession); two have had later stage alcohol problems, and one (me) is known to drink too much from time to time. This is all anecdotal, but I wish you the best, OP. I've heard good things about Alanon and AA literally saved my father's life. He died ten years ago and I miss him a great deal.[/quote]
