West....if you are interested in learning more....we have an extensive library (also called "stickies" at the top of the forum)....of excellent articles on alcoholism and the effects on the loved ones. Lots of them...about one 100...enough for you to read and digest one every single day....lol....
You will probably never find so many good articles collected together, anywhere....
