Just realized
I had a lot of people tell me they thought my husband was an alcoholic and I didn't admit it to myself because he would only binge once a month (or so I thought) but they said that even once a month was enough if he was binging. I still didn't listen to those others but my husband admitted to me recently that he sometimes sneaks alcohol on the way home, and I have to face the fact that it was only through my demanding him that he did not drink more than that, before I made demands he was drinking a lot.
I have noticed recently that he has passive agressive tendancies and was wondering how much of passive aggressiveness can be connected with alcoholisim. He admitted that during the times he would quietly pick on me (being derogitive but yet acting innocent about it) was usually when he would sneak some alcohol before coming home. I have to face this is a greater issue than I wanted to admit and so I need to meet up with others dealing with thier loved ones and thier drinking, but I am scared to meet others because I am not that social of a person and don't usually feel comfortable taking steps to go to meetings like al anon. I am scared because I am not sure what goes on in those meetings and how one goes about setting it up.
If anyone can tell me some of what goes on with al anon I would appreciate it
Thank you
