Every weekend my husband gets drunk and I leave and stay with a friend. He got drunk tonight (Wednesday), and he was apparently annoying my son who has schizophrenia. They have drunk together before, but I always worried it could go badly. My son left the house yelling at my husband and he left without money or his phone.

After he left, my husband and I screamed at each for a bit, and I left. Usually I just leave quietly, we hadn't had a fight like that in years.

Now I'm really worried about my son and really pissed at my husband. My husband said I should leave and not come back. I don't know what I'm going to do. I'm sure when he's sober, my husband will say he didn't mean it, but he doesn't usually say that. Thirty years is a long time to throw away.

Thirty years, is a long time. His alcohol use, has already created a rift,between you. You go live somewhere else, on the weekends, because of it. Having to live with outbursts, you seem more worried, if he means it, than angry for being deprived of a sense of marital normalcy.

This is called verbal abuse. The Verbally Abusive Relationship by Patricia Evans is the book that saved my life after 31 years of abuse. Call a Domestic violence hotline or women's shelter.

God, I know, healing4me. It sounds incredibly lame. I am and have been very angry that I have to leave all the time. I just haven't wanted to leave for good. I don't know I'm exhausted and I can't think straight. Thank you both for your replies
