Hello, I have been reading stuff in here for a while. My spouse is an alcoholic. He has no desire to help himself. He does not see it as a problem. It has caused major financial problems among other issuses. He says he enjoys drinking and like the taste of beer. He drinks everyday. I have been with him for 15 years and I have never known him to go longer than three days or so without a drink. Anyway, I am to the point that I do't care about helping him. I used to, but now I just don't care. I have realized I can't stop him. I try to stay seperate from him as much as possible. I do have to spend some time with him to keep the peace for my children. I care about him and love him but I wish he would just never drink around me or in my home. I am just looking for advice, support , someone that can relate to me. I have never felt more alone in my marriage...the beer has won.
