My husband is an alcoholic, and I've been struggling for a long time trying to figure out if that makes him worse or it's just happening at the same time.
It makes it worse, it's not a coincidence.
His dad does the same stuff and he doesn't drink...is what I wonder about. And H's moods come and go, regardless of drinking. I know it's not "a coincidence." But it can be comorbid, with lots of other problems. He definitely is better since he stopped pounding down hard liquor every day at 4:31 p.m.
