Alcoholism Solutions: How Do You Deal With an Alcoholic Husband?

Question by .: How do you deal with an alcoholic husband?
My husband is an alcoholic and he doesn’t even realise how he is ruining his life and mines. My husband has been fired from his job because of his alcoholism; he is constantly sick, always vomiting because of his drinking. He can’t even function anymore without starting his day with a bottle of beer. Whenever we go outside let’s say to the park or mall, he’ll start being so loud and acting so foolish. He has passed out on the street cold before, leaving me to drag and try to pick my husband up who is twice my size. I really don’t know if I can handle this.

The sad part here is I’m watching him kill himself. I tried to take him to AA and then he just tells me he’ll straighten up but after two days he can’t handle not drinking so he resorts to his old ways. I’m so scared leaving him alone in the house also. I tried locking up all the cabinets with alcohol in them I tried throwing them away. But whenever I do he just goes in my wallet and buys more alcohol. I started working overtime just to keep up with the mortgage and the millions of other bills. I’m so sick of this; my husband has never been like this at least not in this way. Honestly I cry every day over him; I have had neighbours actually call the police on him. People tell me they are fearful for my life and think I’m crazy for still being with him. The thing is, I really I love him; I really want him to get better.

Anyone have advice on this situation? Thank you so much.
