alcoholism?

[pandabunny]

my husband tried to quit - it was 5 days that he was sober (the longest he has been sober in a year) and then he went and got a bottle of hard liquor today. i don't know how to react. should i just not react? should i just let him deal with it and not say anything?

he's having a relapse, and maybe you should put him in rehab if it really bothers you alot. It takes alot of positivity from the people around him to know that he can succeed in kicking alcohol out of his life. When he is sober, tell him how much more you like it, and praise him for being sober.

As someone with a gambling problem, I can only point you to Al-Anon. If you live near a metropolitan area, there should be a chapter you could join.I did the same thing your husband did only with gambling. I would quit for a few days only to go right back. He should try Alcoholics Anonymous, individual therapy or whatever it takes to quit.
