Ex DP - how worried should I be?

EX DP drank a litre of vodka last night. I spoke to him at 11 and he was slurry, incoherent, talking nonsense. He hasn't shown up to see DD today and I can't get hold of him. Phone is just ringing out. Should I go round and check on him. He was supposed to pick up DD at 2 today.

He has been a gradually getting worse binge drinker for a few years. He used to hide it when we lived together. I think he drinks every day and drinks to extremes 2-3 days a week.

I've been through this multiple times with ex DH. Obviously you won't want him looking after your daughter given how much he's drunk but maybe put your mind at rest. Last time this happened the police tracked him down to the hospital but most often he's passed out.

That’s very sad for your daughter. I hope he gets the help he needs.
