Just talking

I know he's getting better, he's trying. He's going to aa meetings which I attend with him for support, he just finished a bottle which he deems his last, drinking and "pouring out" the rest of it last night. Yet we both agreed that we should keep it as an emergency for withdrawal cause he shakes really bad and has had seizures in the past. I don't know what to do, I get that the temptation of alchohol in the house might be too much but what if something happens? I've heard folic acid and electrolytes are the best for withdrawals but will that really help prevent somthing medical from happening? It's hard to be supportive when just two nights ago he decided to have a third shot to calm the shakes after already having a designated one to two shot limit for DTs. I figured talking about it with people who go through similar things and question themselves would help, so here I am. How do you deal with loving them and still being so frustrated and mad at them? It feels like a weight on my shoulders that I know I shouldn't be carrying cause I can't fix it or cure it yet I need to be here to support him. Anyway if you read to the end of this I hope you're having a good day🫶🫂
