I need some quick advice, my husband is on his way home and is drunk. He's had an ongoing problem with binge drinking which he's been trying to address. I've told him I don't want to see him in that condition and not to come home today. He's with his brother and they've been away for the weekend. I've told him to either stay away for another night or to go with his brother to his mum's and we can talk tomorrow.
He's insisting they're both coming here (as was the original plan, but not pissed up).
I've said I will not willingly let them in. Where do I stand? It's a joint mortgaged house. We're both professionals, he's quite a senior lawyer in his firm, I don't want to cause trouble and embarrassment if he turns up here, I was hoping he'd quietly go elsewhere until he was in a suitable state for discussion.
Should also add I've got a history of depression and anxiety (lightly medicated) and day to day I'm great at the moment but things like this rock me and right now it's got quite extreme - I feel like I'm on the edge of a more serious episode / breakdown, I can recognise the feelings.
What can I do? Got 2 young DCs upstairs so leaving the home isn't an option.
