Is there a chance that your husband being “normal” and all, could just not keep a sixer in the icebox? Did you ask him to not have alcohol in the house? Did you tell him how you were watching him drinking while you are trying to maintain your sobriety? Does he know the nature of the struggle you are going through?

I understand that our recovery is our responsibility, but the people around us have a very powerful influence on us as well. We are not immune to their influences.

If your husband will meet you half way on this question, good. Not having it in the house shouldn’t be too much of an imposition to a man who can take it or leave it alone. But If you don’t talk to him about what you are trying to do, how is he supposed to know?
