[QUOTE="Triedntrue, post: 731472, member: 21499"] So he is aware his drinking is the problem and still chose not to get help isn't that the purpose of the intervention? I mean to get him to understand what he already does seems destined to fail. What he does about the apartment and the cats is his problem not yours. I am sorry i may sound harsh and you may not be ready to detach but you need to let him face his own consequences. My brother is an addict clean for many years my son following that path. My brother said to me until he reaches the point where HE decides that his drinking is ruining his life he will not change. HE has to hit bottom. He told me to stop helping and let him figure it out. If you have read my posts you will know i struggle with this it is hard. But i ask for strength for me and pray for him. You have to decide what you can live with but please let him decide what he can live with. [/QUOTE]
