Please point me there, if so. I need to find some ways to understand behavior. Thanks.

3. Find a copy of the AA Big Book and read the chapter "To Wives"
which is a description of what's going on and what might be done.

Read the entire thing if you want more understanding. Good luck!

4. I wholeheartedly recommend Alanon literature....
I tried to make things work with an alcoholic for over a decade and made damned nearly every mistake that an alcoholic's partner can make-- good intentioned, but ultimately harmful. If I'd figured that out a lot earlier, well, maybe things might have turned out differently. Maybe not, but at least I would have understood what was happening better.
