Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I have gone through your available history.

You should take your husband to de-addiction center or to a psychiatrist for controlling his alcohol addiction.

Doctor will rule out any psychiatric illness or personality disorder in addition to alcohol abuse.

If you can live with him, it will be a good support factor to reduce his addiction.

Thanks
