Have you checked out Al-Anon? It is a group for people affected by another person’s addiction.

Is he seeking treatment, or doing AA or other support groups? If not, I doubt he will change.

Ask yourself, do you want to be in same situation next week, next month, etc.... If not, you need to make a change now!

From someone who has struggled with additions and a daughter of alcoholic.

@tiredcat I agree 100% with @roch AlAnon was a life saver for me while I was coping with an alcoholic father. They helped me, helped me work to not damage my young family, and how to establish boundaries. I attended meetings for decades. My two sisters chose not to do this and they paid a heavy price for it in their lives and the lives of their family members.
