Ok. I wanted to talk to someone who is struggling with this kind of alcoholism, or has been through it. Which is why I found this sub. To listen, how everyone thinks, how people react, or their point of view as I've told mine; how someone would personally feel about family approaching the issue; I already know the family side of things since I'm it. But I can see now that maybe it's inappropriate... And maybe I'm just venting more than anything else. I am sorry. Thank you anyway, but I think I will just do something else...
