I feel so guilty. I have been an alcoholic for so long. I have destroyed most of my relationships. I have been in and out of jobs. I don't know if I can ever give up the bottle. It has been my crutch for so long. Honestly, I feel hopeless. I am writing to you to see if you can help me. I don't work much just enough to get me by. So I don't have a lot of money to get expensive treatment.

My father was an abusive alcoholic. I'm terrified that I will repeat the same pattern with my kids.

I am a recovering alcoholic. I have been attending 12-step groups for many years. My problem is that I am a dry alcoholic. I am always angry and upset. I have been sober for 5 years, but my anger has hurt my relationship with my wife and children. I am an open guy who genuinely wants help, but I cannot control my anger.

My wife keeps telling me that I have a drinking problem. How would I know? 
Answered by: Dr. Kevin Skinner
I have some habits that I really want to break, but I just don’t know how to stop. Sometimes it's like I don't even want to do them, but I just need to. And sometimes I do them without even noticing. What makes a habit so hard to break? Where do I even start? How can I keep from falling back into my old patterns? How can I tell the difference between a habit and an addiction?

Is alcoholism hereditary? 
Answered by: Dr. Kevin Skinner
My family doesn't believe in divorce, but I cannot continue on in this horrible marriage. My husband is abusive and mean. He is an alcoholic. I am scared to get out because I don't know where I will go. I wish my family understood what I am going through. I really need their support.

My business is way off. I am home most of the time-not making enough money. I want my wife to go back to work. She doesn't want to. The kids are in school all day. I have just realized how much like my whiney mother my wife is. I know why my dad left her. I drink a couple of drinks a day. They aren't helping.

My husband drinks too much at every party. I don't say anything because I don't want to make him mad. He says impolite things when drinking. I am scared to drive home with him after he drinks. What do I do?

My wife is an alcoholic. She drinks behind my back. She doesn't know I know as much as I do. I am thinking about confronting her, but I don't know what to say. I am afraid she will get angry and threaten to leave me. Does your expert have ideas to help me talk with my wife?
