Welcome Ihopeforbetter, I totally agree with Lookingout. I suggest checking into Alanon. These links will help you http://www.al-anon.alateen.org/ and http://www.al-anon.alateen.org/local-meetings. We also have a forum on the board here for family and friends of alcoholics and addicts http://www.bluidkiti.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=18 . When I was new to AA my mom also found it helpful to read some of the AA literature like the Big Book - http://www.bluidkiti.com/BB/ and the 12 Steps and 12 Traditions book - http://www.bluidkiti.com/12steps.html . I suggest you also read the chapter in the big book To Wives http://www.bluidkiti.com/BB/chapter_8.html .

He has to want to do this for himself. In the meantime, for you, seek help for yourself. At no time let him abuse you. Please keep coming and sharing with us. We are here for you.
