Is he drinking every day at the moment?
To endlesspatience,
If you want to know more about her AH (alcoholic husband) ask him. Why ask a non-professional why someone else's recovery failed?
Here in the Friends and Family Forum we focus on the needs, concerns and support of the non-alcoholic.
We are here to support Ladybug as she recovers from living with active alcoholism.
Ladybug, I am sorry about hijacking your thread to address endlesspatience.
Back to you and your recovery.
Please make yourself at home by reading and posting as much as needed.
