 After one or two drinks, my boyfriend can't stop drinking until he drinks too much. It scares me, but I don't have the money to see a counselor or a therapist about it right now. The more I think about my boyfriend's drinking, the more depressed I get. He's charming, handsome, and smart in so many ways. But when he drinks, I don't even know him. A friend of mine suggested I try Al-Anon Family Groups.
