my husband is alcoholic and iam worry about him all the time?

Question

he drinks all the time

Answer 1

If he was drunk when you met him, then it should have crossed your mind that he still might get drunk tomorrow. I am not psychic but he might be drinking next week too. Cheers!!!

Answer 2

As you very well should be. I've been sober for seven years now after drinking for a good 25 years. It's no way to live...
You're husband is literally drowning all his organs. Especially his liver. He's susceptible to all kinds of health problems. Hepatitis C is only one of them. I had to go through the treatment for that, and let me tell you, it was no picnic. Most alcoholics have HepC...
If you have kids, whether you think so or not, it's having an effect on them that will last almost a lifetime. Very few kids come out okay from an alcoholic family. I know this too, as I was from one.
It will take years of not necessarily therapy, but a lot's of struggles and heartches to get through...
You need to have a serious talk with your husband. Make him understand how concerned you are about his health, and you're lives together. I don't know enough of your situation to really go into this any further.....I only know what I know through experience. If you'd like to discuss this further you can e-mail me and I'd be more than happy to talk to you.
Sincerely....
A concerned citizen...

Answer 3

All you can really do about any of that, and this is going to be really hard to hear, is take care of yourself.

Begin each day to do something nice for yourself. Just don't react to his problems if you can help it, or you could become part of the problem and not the solution.

Think more of yourself than to waste any of you're precious time in that never ending circle.

This may sound cruel or uncaring, but it is anything but. It is offering him a chance to heal himself.

For you, things will get better. Believe that you will find the answer. And I would say, turn it over to a higher power.

That might not be everybody's solution, but it's the one I believe in.

But also, always keep both eyes open for what is gonna help you.

Answer 4

Please remember that alcoholism is an addiction/disease. It is important to know that because the person can NO LONGER CHOOSE whether to drink or not (hence addiction). He will need help from you, help from others.

He can make a choice to live a better life, and he'll need your help; but for his sake, please remember that as an addiction/disease, he's not consciously making the decision to drink - that is now beyond him and is WHY he'll need your help.

AA is a great option and he can relate with others in his position. Do your best to encourage him, to be there with him, he needs to know that you'll be there for him through this addiction/disease. Ask others he loves to be involved in this process. His acknowledgment of the addiction/disease is the first and probably most important step.

Help him, he needs you.

Answer 5

Look for Al-Anon, a support group for families of alcoholics.

Answer 6

i understand how you feel. i have a loved one like this. i pray for him all the time and encourage him to quit. there are programs out there that you could refer him to. he has to make a decision that he wants to quit. i call a place often and ask for prayer and they give me words of encouragement he has to take the first steps and hopefully you could encourage him with love. let him know how you feel and how it worries you. ask if he is willing to get help.tell him you will be there for him. pray much.

Answer 7

drive him to the hospital every time he drinks to much see if they will help him .Im pretty sure he has to help himself .All you can do is tell his family maybe they will help him or his boss they should notice he needs help.Some work places offer you time off and your insurance will help you for the addiction.

Answer 8

WHY ARE YOU WORRIED......AFRAID HE'LL DIE????
HE'S MADE HIS CHOICE, YOU MAKE YOURS.
