If your husband is a drunkard

The problem of alcoholism is widespread all over the world. Different societies belonging to different cultures understand it. Many families break up owing to this problem. We won't discuss in this article whether it is possible to treat drunkards and whether it is a disease or not. Here we will consider whether it is possible to preserve a family in this situation or divorce is the only way out.

Drunkards rarely understand the whole seriousness of the problem. Here we don't mean the disease itself but those things they can lose in exchange for their addiction. The most vulnerable value is the family.

Your task is to explain to him that he can lose you, your family and children. Here the main thing is to implement your threats. If you constantly threaten him but do nothing, he will get used to it and will pay no attention to your words. Even if you love him very much don't show your weakness and don't give in.

No matter how strong is your wish to help him, he must want to change himself. Understand that you can't help him alone. When you see that nothing can help in this situation leave him and take your children with you. Maybe it will sober him up.

Don't make final and fatal decision. Give him an opportunity to change everything. When he returns and tells you that he has coped with his addiction, give him a chance, but do it only once. Otherwise it will be a farce.

The main thing here is not to overdo. If your husband takes this problem keenly, don't complicate his state. Demonstrate your support but let him realize that it is up to him to decide what he would do further.

And the last thing. When nothing really helps there can be the only way out – DIVORCE.
