| Actions speak louder than words...... Alcoholics lie. There's an old joke that goes, "the way to tell an alcoholic is lieing is if his lips are moving." Watch what he does. Al-anon can help. You can get some pointers on what to look for. I chose AA. I went to meetings, got a sponsor, and completely immersed myself in learning to live in a way that was condusive to not drinking. And, while I'm on the bandwagon, let me say this. Your husband did not make you who you are today!! We all go through life things that we adjust to and learn to live with. You are who you are because of decisions you've made in order to live your life. You hubby may have had some influence on who you are through his actions(be they positive or negative)but you're the one who's made it this far and you can adjust to this situation as well. Please don't fall into the trap that tells you that you can't live without him or that you're willing to believe everthing he says for the sake of your daughter. Stand your ground and demand to see proof that he's changing. Al-anon is a good source of support. Use it.
