Hello everyone. This might not be the right forum, and I may be off-topic, but I need to get this off my chest. My husband struggles with alcohol. He goes on binge drinking episodes every 3 to 5 months, lasting nearly 10 days. This causes me a lot of stress. I suffer from severe headaches and feel very nervous. When he's not drinking, he's a completely different person. But the binge episodes are hell... Every time, I want to leave him, but I also remember the good days. I feel like I lack willpower or strength. I'm so weak... 😢☹️😫

Why is he still your husband? Why don't you love yourself more? My ex-husband used to drink. Those were not good days; he was sinking. Why are you putting up with this?

Yes, you like this kind of life. Overcoming 'difficulties' (I did it — I'm proud of myself). The compassion of those around you (everyone's pitying you, and you're the center of attention). Now, continue on your own and enjoy the benefits of your situation.

Are you codependent? You might consider joining a support group for women and individuals living with loved ones who have addictions to alcohol or drugs. Are you going to keep trying to save him for a long time? Making endless excuses for his illness? Why are you punishing yourself with such a life? Your spouse is ill. Until he recognizes it himself, your presence in his life is only wasting your own time.

You just need to gather your strength and cut all ties with him. I’ve been through that myself.

The future for alcoholics is uncertain. Their binges will become longer, with periods of sobriety lasting only three months followed by ten days of drinking. Ultimately, this is just a matter of time. If they don't see the problem and don't plan to seek treatment, sooner or later, they will succumb to alcoholism and related health issues. The question is: do you want to spend all this time with them, losing your youth and attractiveness in the process, or do you want to set things straight, get a divorce, and start a new life? This is your life — there won't be a second chance, and youth passes quickly. Keep that in mind.

What pain do you feel about him drinking? Is he on vacation at that time?
