I agree. My ex is an alcoholic and it caused HUGE problems for me. And even when he wasn't supposed to drink, he would ask me for a drink to "help him sleep" or to "join the party" or when we were out and about on the town, he wanted one --- or four or five. He didn't know how to stop once he started. And also became an abusive asshole when drunk. It was a nightmare for me.
Just noticed the OP said case closed and we're all still talking about it, LOL.
