[quote=Anonymous]OP here:  Thank to everyone again for the support.  I agree with the PP's who talked about recovery and what it looks like, and the importance of having an open dialogue about the genetics for alcoholism with our child.  Part of what I am struggling with is the deception that has taken place.  He has admitted that he has struggled with alcohol abuse for some time (before we met) yet he has managed to keep it pretty well concealed until now.  Looking back there are many things I didn't put together, that I now know are related to alcoholism: He had intermittent problems with ED, he had increasing trouble managing responsibilities like remembering to pay certain bills, he gained quite a bit of weight, he would have excuses why he couldn't come to bed with me at night (needs to work, wants to watch TV etc) and I would find him on the couch in the morning.  He has also had a somewhat erratic employment history, although his explanations for switching jobs or being let go always seemed to make sense at the time.  But piecing this all together bit by bit has been really unsettling.  I'm just glad that I now know what I know and can take steps to protect myself and our child.  [/quote]
