There's no shame in feeling bad for him, nor wanting him to get better. He's very lucky to have you as a friend. It's also possible/probable that he's taking advantage of your generosity. Alcoholism is a very selfish affliction.

As other have mentioned, the F&F forum may be a good place to seek help for yourself and how to handle the situation. You have no control over his choice to keep drinking, he'll need to want and seek help for that on his own. Please take care of yourself.
