You guys are absolutely right, and when things are sooo bad as they are right now, he does not drink. It just seems that the pub is the only place he is comfortable to go and leave if something occurs. He tends to feel more like a whole person when he does drink, he has many friends, but feels if he is not like he is when drinking they will not want to be around him. I certianly know that is silly, because I see all in him no mater what, but how do you convince someone else, himself, that that is so.
Right now, this week, drinking not an issue since the BEAST RULES, and one day at a time is all we can take.
Again, thank you for your responses.
