Husband drinking and lying - call it quits?

[likkyli]

After an evening in hospital with a poorly relative, Ive come home to a bog eyed drunk H, no longer DH as despite numerous times being told he'll stop, it hasn't. I'd forgotten my house keys and was ringing the house phone and his mobile - he told me he couldnt hear it, both were right fucking by him!!

I don't want this, to be married to someone who sneakily buys booze and drinks until they're intoxicated. DC upstairs asleep but what if they'd been ill?

I'm really really scared to be on my own as I'm currently a SAHM but to me drinking is like cheating. Will he change, will he stop? I'm torn as being on my own is frightening (currently on ADs) but I can't be married to a drunk bum.

I call bullshit on him claiming that the GP won't help because he's "not a typical alcoholic ".
a) A gp would know that alcohol issues can affect anyone - there is no typical alcoholic
b) if you are concerned about your drinking, that is enough to get you help. The NHS has some great alcohol counselling programs, and you don't have to be an alcoholic to access them.
