My boyfriend and I have been together for a year and a half. Actually, we broke up around a month ago because of issues that he has. You see, when he has problems, he drinks. Instead of dealing with issues, he drinks. He also has been diagnosed with depression and p.t.s.d. from being in the middle east. (Military) We had come a long way and endured a lot. We love each other so much. But, his drinking and lack of desire to work through his issues made me decide to leave him because it was making our relationship a lot harder. But, right before we broke up, he admitted that he had a problem...and has been seeking therapy and rehab since. And as time has passed, I have found myself questioning my decision. Our love is really strong, and our relationship was strong with the exception of those things. I don't want to be without him. He has my whole heart. And I know that I have his.
Would it be possible to work through these issues together?? If I chose to try to get past this, could we?? What could I do to understand more, or to help him?
Any input would be so helpful.
