Pls how do I handle this problem of hubby that does not have self control when it comes to alcohol?

He drinks too much and sometimes messes the bed up with urine.

I have talked to him still no change pls I need practice solutions that will make him stop because he is the type that doesn't take things serious unless it gets to him and this his behavior is making me regret my marriage to him.


Start putting some money aside before his liver finally shuts down.
Wetting the beds means he already has diabetes and probably about to short circuit his kidneys as well.
He must have taken you out to some happening bars and hangouts when you were dating, so his alcoholic prowess should come as no surprise to you. Also buy a small pestle and have it nearby should he come home one day and mistake you for a punching bag. Pestles are handy for resetting the brain.

If u truly loves him and wants the marriage to work
just talk to him with respect and love each time he does it. Make him realise how disappointed and embarrassed you always feels each time he does it.
Let him sincerely promise to stop it,beg him to do it for you and ur children, ( you must emotionally connect to him by shielding real tears before him on ur kneels) too heard abi. Lastly If truly u want changes from him,u must first change some things about urself to him. What are the things he complains about u that u have refused to change.u don't need to tell us just work on urself and pray to God to recreate him because He (God) is able

He's an addict. He's not drinking because of her behaviour so he won't stop even if she changed and becomes an angel. It's not every problem in marriage that is the fault of a woman. So stop thinking like that and giving useless advices that you have not yet put to test.

Thank you.

This takes us back to what IamDon18 said.
You didn't do your finding about his characters and habits. A simple underground check would have done.

I recently helped a friend uncover a potential suitor who had lied to her that he worked at MTN. I advised her to ensure he gave her the breakdown of where his office was.
She visited the place unannounced and discovered he was lying.
Many ladies had fallen prey for such fraudsters.

But again, it has happened and blaming you wouldnt help solve anything. One point is alcohol is addictive and will need professional handling to help him quit. Still follow my advice on seeing a primary physician.

UDUJ:
Did he just start drinking alcohol or this has been happening for a longtime now? Majority of times when a man is depressed he turns to alcohol.

Do you know the source of his depression? Is it lack of finance, being out of a job or are you also contributing through constant nagging and belittling the man? Give us honest answers if you need our help.

May God bless you

It's only your husband and him alone that will change himself if he wants to. There is nothing you can do.
Most negroes are not raised to be strong and find a very good distraction. Any small thing, they will turn to dangerous distractions like sex, drugs or alcohol.

Is your house roomy? Any time you smell piss, change rooms. I hope you are working? Get busy!

If you are conversant with your pastor( if na better pastor you get), tell him to come and visit and invite your husband for church service and other activities. This is the little you can do for him.

If only people will leave sex, cheating and money to focus on important things during courting, we won't have people in miserable marriages or high rate of divorce.

Anger management, personalities, addictions, abuse, level of mutual understanding, friendship, goals, genotype, differences, family background and histories are very very underrated in relationships these day.

Sex, money, birthday, hanging out, cruise, sexchat, cooking and gifts are the only things existing in 99.742% of relationships in Nigeria.

Pending when he stops,

You can help his health with honey in place of raw sugar.
Honey will boost his health, while praying for a change in attitude.
Show him love, let him know how much you love him, after that let him know how much he hurts you and his health.
Let him understand that you want to grow old with him.



Check out our Business model, using honey...

MY HONEY BUSINESS MODEL

I make money for people while they also make money for me distributing original honey.

I started out with our office cleaner and residential gate man as my direct distributors, now we have over 20distributors in Lagos Island alone, with a target of increasing them to 40 soonest, with the aim of earning just 5k monthly from each distributor.

We are presently active in Five states with business partners Manning those other states.

I hate being broke and am not comfortable when people are broke.

Its obvious that most graduates are looking for job, but trust me, most companies pay young graduates less than 200k/month. My model of 40distributors guarantees you earning a minimum of 200k/month.

Our parents complain about finance because of the daily expenses, take your time and find out how much they spend in a month, for most moderate homes, it's less than 100k outside school fees and house rents. That implies that with just 20k increment in such home, their living standard will change, by virtue of distributing honey.

For you as a person, with 20k increment to what you currently earn, what impact will it make in your life ?

Our Honey distribution model is simple, you earn an average of 20-25k for every 20litrs you distribute. Personally l don't do it directly, l engage people to do it and pay them commissions for every quantity sold, so we make money for each other.

I sampled peoples demand for honey using an FB page without posting much on it and currently we have over 2k page likes .
We are growing rapidly so l just decided to share this with you here.

If you think its not for you, are there not people around you, who can do it or who earn less or depend on you?

If yes, sell the idea to them, set them up and let them earn from it while you keep re-circulating the cost price, instead of helping them each time with your money.

Do well to chat me up for whatever questions you may have about this.
Contact: 07035333768.

Cheers to good health,
Healthy pocket,
Quality Honey.

@virtuouswoman77, talk to him and also make sure he drinks only at home.
Start by buying him drinks so he doesn't buy himself nor allow anyone else to buy it for him. Use carrot and stick approach, I believe he is going to love sex or food or the way you dress, so use that, tell him anytime he drinks alcohol outside or without your permission (drunk or not), he won't get those things he enjoy for certain period.
Also, you too should give him the best of it so he can crave for it by avoiding alcohol most times just to get it

Re: Help My Husband Lacks Self Control by Think9ja(m): 12:13am On Oct 05, 2020
To an average Nigerian lady, if you are 30+ with a job, you're husband material.

I don't empathize with all these women.

Men are not good at pretending.
If it was a man complaining of a particular habit by his wife, I will understand cos women are excellent pretenders. They put up their best pretentious lifestyle during courtship, only for them to come and frustrate the gentleman later. If you were observant enough, you would have known he's a heavy drinker. But nope, you were more interested in how the wedding day was going to be.
I cannot be with someone for a month and not know something as serious as this, except I don't enter his bedroom.

My advice is whatever you decide to do concerning this problem, make sure you achieve results asap. Cos once he clocks 40, forget it!
You know what they say about that age right?

Well for me, I'd say, monitor when he's about to go out for drinks just join him to his drinking so you can monitor his drinking and tell him it's enough when he's gone past 3 bottles.

Normally, it all depends on his current number of bottles. If he's used to take like 7 bottles, try to ENCOURAGE him lovingly to start reducing it from 5 after about 2 weeks to 3 ans pleas leave at that level of 3 bottles.
If man no drink, oe smoke, no womanize what other joy dey life for an adult man?

The point is for a spouse that u want to help quit or reduce addiction, only love could be deployed with wisdom.

Then lovingly sit him down and explain the cost implications of his drinking spree and of course the various things he should ha e achieved with the saved money.

Also, try to make him see how much his absence is affecting the children who truly deserve his attention and fatherly discipline and love.

Abeg lemme allow other wise NLders contribute.

NOTE : U can never force anyone to stop an addiction abruptly, but you can make visible progress by showering him with understanding and less nagging.

Men adjust when showed true understanding by their women.

Wish u the best dear wifey.

Peace

Don't take this personal but from what u wrote there u married a fvcked up man.. greedy, uncontrolled and childish. I knew those types while growing up. Its all about the booze to them. No matter the occasion their primary concern is getting more booze. You never knew about this because u never stayed over with him while dating. There is nothing u can do to save him other than serious prayers. I really pity u tho. Watch his circle of close friends they're not much different from him just maybe they can at least control theirs.

It is nowhere in the bible.Quote what you know please.Not in support of the religious fanatic though.
You really need to spend less time on the internet and study the Bible more so you don't embarrass yourself with statements like this.

James 2: 14-17, 26.

What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead... For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also

1) find the root cause of the problem.... he may have other deep issues that you have not cared to consider and his only escape is alcohol

2) be very prayerful (so he does not loose his life in such debauchery, and also so he changes his bad association or friends)

3) you both need COUNSELING.... a happy home will not be like this.... obviously he does not COMMUNICATE with you, he only TALKS TO YOU. So you are not his confidant.

4) MAKE THE FIRST MOVE, talk with him and let him open up to you... it won't be easy but it would help

5) HONOR AND RESPECT HIM, no matter what happens, do not loose respect for your man, he is all you've got

6) PROTECT his image the best way you can, and you can also ask his family for help.

7) Read Books, Blogs and attend conferences on FAMILY, HOME, RELATIONSHIPS


Heed these 7 instructions and things will begin to change

Bro, all you wrote are perfectly okay but that number 6 get K-leg. She should never involve his family. It may backfire and he begins to see her as insulting him even to his family members level.

She should simply show him love and wifely understanding.
