You are 24 years old, and in Vet school. You have a very bright future ahead of you. But you are headed down a roller coaster path to pain with your ABF. There is nothing you can do to save him, no matter how supportive you want to be. And you are in no way responsible for his decisions. If he is still drinking once a week, then he is not in recovery. You can't do anything about that. The only thing you have control over is your own health.
AlAnon is an amazing support system of like souls. That first meeting is hard to walk into, but the minute you're there you realize you are in a room full of friends. If you just want to listen, that's fine.
Keep posting and reading here. I wish you the best. I would LOVE to have become a Veterinarian!
