Question by amanda8410: My boyfriend is an an alcoholic! How do I make him get help?
How do I get my boyfriend, an alcoholic who denies it to get help? Talking and crying and begging his family to talk to him has not worked.

Best answer:

Answer by bronzebabekentucky
I’m sorry hun, but you can’t Make him. Can’t. He has to WANT to go, and he has to WANT help. If he doesn’t want it himself, and he obviously doesn’t, it will not work.

He doesn’t care about You or ANYONE enough to stop. He doesn’t see it as a problem.
You need to go to some Al-Anon meetings to understand all this. And, I would suggest you leave him before it all goes VERY bad.
And, it Will.
