I've had no sleep whatsoever so may be being irrational but he's just stumbled in, I've not been able to get hold of him since 12 cos he lost his phone, which is all he seems bothered about..no apology, in fact told me to shut up when kept asking where he'd been...now he's passed out..nice. generally marriage is up & down mainly due to drink issues..he's what you call a functioning alcoholic..or in denial...he goes to cbt to try to manage it and 90% of time is good husband & father..but then these episodes happen. Pls no preaching about alcoholism..I'm well aware of enabling etc..I just want to know if this would be the last straw for you?

The sad part is that your dps alcoholism and subsequent behaviour is so mentally draining, that you are quite possibly not 100% able to give your children your best. They are not benefiting from you staying with him "for them".
