what should i do that my husband to give up to drink alhogol?

Answer 1

If he won't do it because you ask him to, maybe he has a problem...you can't make him, but you don't have to stay and watch...give him an ultimatum..

Answer 2

Hate to say it but there is absolutley nothing you can do, people will only stop drinking when & if they want to, or until they reach ultimate rock bottom. I lived with an alcoholic for 4 years, he wasn't an everyday drinker but used to binge drink to the point of oblivion, passed out in our driveway, ending up in hospital and many more awful situations, this was probably a monthy occurance and the after effects DT's etc lasted for many weeks after he stopped drinking. He is now seeking help again (a/a) and has been sober this time for 6months, his last bender resulted in nearly losing his house & new partner ie: his rock bottom.

Answer 3

You really can't change others, only your own self...however, many years ago, my husband would drink about 6 cans of coke a day and I would get mad at him and try to tell him that he was going to end up sick because of all the caffeine and sugar he was ingesting. So I made him a deal and I paid him $20.00 per week to buy juice instead and he accepted and he quit drinking coke and instead drank juice and even took juice to work with him. Mission accomplished.

Answer 4

make the problem as real as you can to him. move out if you have to and don't move back until the problem is gone or dealt with properly. i have a friend who had to deal with this exact problem. she didn't get any action until she stated and acting out on an ultimatum. her hub gave up the drinking when he fully realized that it had the very real potential of costing him his spouse and child.
if you don't have the ability to move out, then eliminate the alcohol from the house, don't drink any yourself and just be as firm as you have to, as ugly as you have to, and even threaten drastic action.
alcohol will take a mile if you give it an inch.

I don't know how severe your hub's problem is....but if it's a problem for you, then it's a problem - period.
Assert for yourself, your marriage, what matters to you and fight for it.
Again, make the problem real for him. Not a problem that is only a problem when he is actually drinking.

Answer 5

Leave him! I know it sounds harsh, but, if his drinking is a problem now, it will get worse as he gets older, he will quit jobs, lose jobs, and maybe hurt or kill someone while drunk. Experience speaking here, my dad drank when my mother met him at 18, when he was fifty (and five kids later) she divorced him, We had a rotten financial life that might have been avoided if she had divorced him when he was much younger.

Answer 6

When he is NOT drinking and the two of you are calm try to talk to him and tell him how his drinking is effecting his life, your life, and tell him how his drinking makes you feel.
If his drinking persists, you may want to consider going to
AL-ANON... that's for family members of alcoholics.

Answer 7

Leave him. You don't have to divorce, but you can separate for a year until you see he is clean and sober and staying that way. It is his choice and you can't change him. Don't stay and put up with it. He will either clean up and get help or he won't, but you can go on and live your life according to your own values without watching him destroy your family.

Answer 8

Start hiding away as much money as you can so when the shi t hits the fan you have something set aside to start over with.

Answer 9

You need to tell him how you feel about it. If he truly cares he will give it up, he may fail at times, stand beside him, and dont let him fall, when its over in the end, it will be worth it!

Answer 10

Try giving him some alcohol; that stuff usually turns people off of alhogol pretty quickly.
