Thanks for all your comments, its great just to have someone to understand what its like. His GP and psych are both aware of his drinking and they have never pressured him to stop. I think it really aggrevates his symptoms but his doctors have never really seen it as an issue. The fact that they mention "self medicating" makes him feel that its ok to drink.

I don't feel in any danger, just want the him to be his old self. Just made him an appointment to see psych, earliest is next week.
