That sounds really difficult. I have a similar situation with my best friend, which is obviously not nearly as hard to deal with as a husband but it still sucks.

Once I quit drinking I realized how much his life was controlled by alcohol. He doesn't see any need to quit despite it affecting his life in every way. He blacks out often, he is gaining weight fast, his relationships suffer, his health will start deteriorating though it's relatively stable now as he is in his 20s.

I used to think I would never in a million years be the kind of person to push sobriety on people, and I still am not. Everyone has to come to things at their own time. It's just hard being in a social circle with so many alcoholics.

I really feel for you. That sounds really tough. Congrats on quitting!😊
