Living with an Alcoholic

An alcoholic can cause chaos, disorder and fear in a household. Their behaviour is often unpredictable; maybe aggresive, emotional or abusive.

Whether the alcoholic is a parent, partner, son or daughter the impact on others in the household can be far reaching. It is important that professional help is sought:

Al-Anon provides support to anyone whose life is, or has been, affected by someone else drinking.

Adfam works with families affected by drugs and alcohol.

Drinkline is the national alcohol helpline for anyone worried about their own or someone else's drinking: Call 0800 817 8282
