What if my alcoholic husband won't try to stop drinking, what should I do?

That's a tough one. I guess it depends how detrimental his drinking is, and how far you are willing to go to get him to stop. I went through something similar with my husband, he got violent and kind of scary when he drank. I told him either 1- he stops cold turkey 2- we get counseling or 3=divorce.

You can't tell an addict to quit. He has to want to quit or he won't. If it's getting to be too much I suggest you tell him that if he won't stop them you will leave.
