Living with an alcoholic husband is incredibly difficult. If, despite your best efforts, you are unable to reason with your spouse, consider leaving him. To do this, you need to tune in well and think about your future.
Instructions
Step 1
Accept that it is no longer possible to force your husband to quit drinking. Do not be one of those wives who continue to live with alcoholics, until the last hope that the husband will eventually come to his senses. In addition, pity for a once loved one plays a role. Even if we consider alcoholism as a disease, and an alcoholic as a sick person, it should be remembered that a person who does not want to be treated and does not value you in anything does not deserve any sympathy.
Step 2
Think about your future, how much it will change once you leave your husband. You will have much less stressful situations, you will be able to take care of yourself, spend more time with those people who are really dear to you. You may even be able to find new love and build the family life you have long dreamed of.
Step 3
Talk to your husband when he is sober and tell him all your thoughts. Tell us about your decision, remember all the situations when you had to worry about it, sacrifice your personal time, etc. It will be good if he himself realizes that all this time he has only poisoned your life.
Step 4
Get a divorce. If the man refuses to do this, threaten him with something. After that, try to contact his relatives so that they can help find a new home for the ex-husband.
Step 5
Stop hanging out with your ex as soon as he leaves your home. Change your phone number, install a new lock on the door. Not only you should come to terms with parting, but also the man himself, who may suddenly change his mind and want to come back. Don't give him that reason. Keep in mind that if he stops drinking and patiently waits for your forgiveness for at least a year, consider giving your man a new chance if deep down you still love him.
