So needed in New York State! My spouse has suffered from alcoholism and depression for many years and his health is spiraling down, down, down. He won't address his problems and we, his family, all suffer because of it with his emotional and verbal abuse. His behavior has pushed all of us into therapy when he is the one who really needs it!
