I actually rarely drink and have no issues there at all.

There is no doubt that my wife has an alochol problem. That's another thing she thinks will get better after she moves out. She drinks to subdue the emotional pain. But...she also drinks due to the physical pain she is in due to severe arthritis. That won't go away. Stress does make it worse, but it will still be there.

Yes, she was drunk and "acting" suicidal early in this thread. This is weird - the more I read and type, the more I reliaze there are some things about my wife I will be thrilled to be away from. Wow...a silver lining.
