Has anyone ever had the ACoA in their life vehemently deny that they have any problems having been raised by an alcoholic? My H will deny until he's blue in the face that he had a chaotic or stressful upbringing. I don't force it on him but I have asked him to get help.

Please help me to understand. Will he ever get help? Will he ever admit that his childhood was not healthy? I see and read about so many individuals who have sought help as ACoAs themselves. Why does he deny any aid for himself?
