Dear Amy: Alcohol was her social lubricant. Alcohol is what allowed her to get past her social anxiety and self-esteem issues.
Dear Amy: From the day we met, over 40 years ago, my wife and I have been social drinkers.AdvertisementShe will keep ordering drinks right up to 2 a.m. And while sometimes stupidly funny when we were younger, as we’ve aged the end results were becoming frequently embarrassing.One night when she went way over the edge, I filmed her, sent the video to her, and told her that I no longer wished to be a part of that lifestyle.
Even though your wife gave up drinking quickly, prompted by the videotaped shame of seeing what alcohol abuse was doing to her , she would still benefit from seeing an addiction specialist, a therapist, and/or by attending meetings with others in recovery. I adjusted my expectations and behavior to accommodate him on many occasions because I also have depression, so I understand the need for flexibility.We had a lot in common and a healthy intimate relationship.
