Hi, newcomer worried about husband

Hello, I did already make my first post but it was under friends and family.

I'm worried about my husband's daily drinking even though he is responsible and doesn't pass out, drive drunk, etc. I'm worried about the cumulative effects of a couple of drinks every single day. He also drinks in the daytime before I get home. And he is very, very defensive about it (and about a lot of other things)

I plan to have a talk with him soon, just need to find the right time and say it the right way.
Thank you!

Welcome to SR speakingup. I think its smart and brave of you to come here seeking help, and I think friends and family will have a lot to offer as well as the newcomers forum here as well. You'll mostly find those seeking support for their own addiction here in the newcomers forum, but all are welcome and feel free to ask any questions you might have.

Welcome to the forum. This is a good place to find support. Read around.

Don't beat yourself up if your husband doesn't want to talk about his drinking. I never wanted to talk about it. Pick a time when he hasn't been drinking.

I hope it works out for you. It's always troubling, isn't it?
