@QuietRobot996 checking to see how you are doing.

I understand that you want to be supportive etc, but when someone has alcohol abuse problems, over time they can develop psychotic episodes and experience auditory hallucinations. It’s especially bad to use alcohol and psych medications.

This problem can end up causing a partner trauma from dealing with the mood swings that present with alcohol abuse.

It’s not unusual for a person to go back to drinking and even going out to be around others that have a party hangout. I am sharing this because my husband abused alcohol and while he has been sober, he has tried to help others that are sober for a while and then go back out to the hangouts to drink with others they call friends but are just others that tend to have the same problem. It is a very narcissistic disease and a partner ends up living around the other persons mood shifts and even psychotic breakdowns. This is not something a partner can fix. This is something the alcohol abuser has to dedicate themselves to and that means changing a lifestyle and walking away from the hangouts and drinking buddies/friends. Some individuals never commit to making this change.
