Welcome, I am glad you have found SR. Please read the permanent posts at the top of the forum, and look into Al-Anon as well.

There is so much wisdom and support here. I have also spent time reading the AA Big Book, helped me realize that my exabf was an alcoholic. Hard to face, but once I could, I did what I had to do to save myself. That was all I could do.

You cannot be your boyfriend's support group, no matter what. You have to take care of yourself, and your own recovery from the effects that the disease of alcoholism has on the loved ones of alcoholics. You can feel better no matter what he is doing.

Please keep reading and posting, SR is always open
