Ditto what Robert said. No way for us to really know if he has a problem without talking to him, but if it's affecting you, Al-anon is a real good place to go to get support and encouragment. Good luck, Chris

Only HE can decide if he has a problem...... Ditto the AlAnon.

Pardon me----Yes, only he knows if he has a problem, we can't ascertain that. wren

I remember someone told me: "Right now, you gotta take care of you." In my sobriety, I first had to take care of me. When I had gotten stable, and had some confidence that I could remain level-headed, (depite my care and worry for loved ones,) then I started to reach out to others. Always ran the situations by my sponsor. Today my brother is sober, too. So, That's what worked for me. Every situation is different and hopefully you are able to take this to someone with experience. Someone whose judgement you trust. Glad you are here! -paul
