Different Attitude

I'm Just wondering if anyone could tell me if this has happened to them. As some of you know my AB has been in rehab twice and detox 8 times and drinking again. But this time seem different because he never raised his voice to me before or hollered at me. Now if I try to talk normal to him he raise his voice and screams at me. Could it be because I've been distancing myself from him when I know he's drinking?

Alcoholism is progressive. And gets worse, along with the behaviors associated with it.

His behaviour sounds extreme- drink may be the cause but it doesn't excuse it

When he starts to scream or raise his voice most of the time I just walk away and let him talk to himself

He seems to have more problems than just drinking. Like controlling his temper. You deserve better than that.

Alcoholism isn't always the only problem involved. He is treating you in an abusive way. Is that what you want your relationship to be like? You deserve better.
