Can I have this as a private post please?
It’s not baby related but thought I could get advice from you all… No judging, but my partner is an alcoholic…
It’s been bad the last few months, but the last few days I haven’t seen him at all or properly heard from him (we don’t live together, but he normally spends every weekend with me) as he’s been at the pub. He’s wasting our savings on alcohol, and he’s lost his job over it too.
He’s just rung and has begged me to help him get help for it, but I’m not sure where to start 😢 I love this man and will do what I can to help him. But it’s tearing our family apart and ruining our relationship.
What can I do to help him? Where do I go? 😢

You need some tough love it awful to see someone you love going through this I know from first hand through my mum becoming and alcoholic then my dad it changed the people they was. They have to want the help my mum had everything detoxs aa meetings therapy she was put in a hospital what specialise in helping detox and recovery she ended up in hospital multiple times even ended up in a coma my mum didn’t manage to beat her demons no matter how much help was given or how much we tried we sadly lost her in 2015 . You have to stay strong and preserve with the person I have seen both my dad and mum at there best but the worst battling through an addiction what they couldn’t control my dad is now a recovering alcoholic because that urge will always be there but he’s battling one day at a time and that’s all he can do I wouldn’t want to see any one like this I hope he can get the help he needs the best thing he has done is admitting there’s a problem that’s a start x
If he is asking he Is ready , my step dad was a alcoholic..15 years Dry now so if he is determined enough he can do it ……but he will need lots of support
You’ll never be able to help him unless he’s willing to help himself they lie and lie and grind you down hun I know from experience and eventually violent aggressive. Walk away and tell him if he loves you to sort himself out if he don’t then you know just like I did. My step dad was alcoholic my ex and my auntie and my friend my auntie as been dry over 12 yrs now the rest are just piss heads and my stepdad is dead he fell drunk and banged his head and chocked on his vomit. It’s awful disease hun it’s a legal habit unfortunately x
My partner has a problem with drinking also he got that drunk he got some drugs and can’t even remember buying them 😡 which I ended it after that but I’ve offered to stick by his side and he the best I can towards him and help as much as I can that’s main thing you can do is be their for him
If you go to doctors am sure they will send you to the right place xx
Take the bank card off him and don’t let him have any kind of control and get him to the doctors ASAP if he’s ready to change s
You need to visit his Dr together and ask for help, good luck x
