Hi, I am new here. It’s 12.15am and I am wide awake because my DH has had another one of his drinking episodes. This is one of many now, they happen I would say once a month. He is foreign I am a British woman and we have a son who is young. To get to the point..
Tonight my DH started drinking around 3.30pm he had a pack of 4 beers then he got himself another two cans. He then drank 2 full bottles of Prosecco. He gets like this from time to time but the first time he did we had a raging row and he pulled over my television. And I left to go and stay with relatives. The second time he pulled over our Christmas tree and pulled it apart in front of our son. Since then there has been a few more of the drinking episodes where he has said nasty things to me. He also speaks to himself a lot which worries me. Tonight he drank himself stupid again and I could hear crashing and banging downstairs followed by mumbling and talking to himself again. He is not the person I know when he is like this. I don’t recognise him but I am scared and I worry he could do something to me because the next day he always says he doesn’t remember. I hate been in this mess, do I leave him now? Is it enough? I can’t keep going through this for me and my sons sake. It breaks my heart and my anxiety is through the roof. 
we have been together 5 years this year.
