Hi Sovery,
Our husbands seem to have a lot in common. After my husband's belligerent rage a couple months ago, he still believes it is everyone else and not him with the problem. Yes he has quit drinking like your husband has because he knows deep down that I will not put up with it anymore, but whenever I bring up his drinking, he becomes irritable and somewhat angry, and in a way projects the blame onto me. It is just too bad that our husbands just cannot accept responsibility for their drinking problems and stop blaming others. So, like you, I find it very sad and unsettling. But I cannot change how he thinks. So I am just going to enjoy my time with him while things are peaceful since he is not drinking at the time and take this day by day.
