Gosh, no, I am not putting all of the blame on alcohol but it does play such a major role.

Most of H's problems stem from lack of self esteem, being a loner, thinking that he has to punish himself and that he will never be forgiven, not even by God. He has told me these things many times.

Yes, he has problems and he must face them instead of running away from them like a child.

He really needs help but he has to make that step because when I have brought it up--what a total of three times in the last year, I am viewed as controlling and manipulative so I stop.

And I think he is using OW because that is the only place he has to go but that is not even a great place because S17 just told me how miserable H sounded lastnight/early AM and was once again, drunk.

Depression, schizophrenia and alzheimers all run in his family.
