Overwhelmed, what now?
I confronted AH this morning. I had to stay home from work in order to find a semi-sober moment to talk with him. I told him he can't drink around us anymore. I tried to be as supportive and loving as I could but yet still be firm in that he can't be like this around us anymore. Man! He's pissed. I can tell he's also scared. He's going with the neighbor up to their cabin this afternoon (I'm at work now), so I know I won't see him for the weekend. I just don't know what to do now?
Also, are there any words that drunk people hear? What's effective?
I am prepared to leave if he won't. Should I talk to my daughter now and let her know what's going on so she's not blindsided by me packing us up and going to stay somewhere else suddenly on Sunday if he refuses... Ugh, so much to think about and I don't know where to start.
I do have somewhere to go if it comes to that.
Please help!
