[quote=Anonymous]Glad to hear that he's listening to you. I drank way too much 20+ years and stopped drinking entirely a couple of years ago because of the various health problems caused by excessive drinking. My drinking is similar to what you describe. I am sure there are plenty of others on here thinking the same thing. Some things to consider: 1. You are not crazy. Your DH is engaged in problem drinking. 2. There are likely other seeking/indulging behaviors there that you don't see as related or don't know about. Eating too much. Risk taking. Other things. 3. He should probably try to address the root cause of this. 4. But you don't need to do a complete 12-step whatever. The cold turkey and then moderation is a legitimate way to handle this for the time being. 5. I think your concerned and supportive approach works. His defensiveness is to be expected. Don't take it personally. [/quote]
