All the ma'ams, are you from the south, military, or expressing great conviction?

The act of drinking, although a major factor, is only a part of the issue. My H also drank way too much and when the sons and I said it's time to quit, he quit. Boom!

But he didn't work on the WHY of his drinking.

Something we didn't talk about, the why. He quit and I thought life would be rosy. Not so.

I couldn't fix him, I could ask him to quit drinking and he did but the rest is up to him.

I attended AlAnon and learned a lot. I also attended AlAnon Adult Child and got even more.

Just a cautionary tale. Working on the why is important, no matter how you do it

I was just curious about your W and how she's dealing with things. She has to come to the place where's she ready to dig through the baggage she's carrying. It's scary.
