My friend's husband started to drink so much alcohol since he lost his job. Now she thinks it is slowly changing him. He no longer talks to her the same way as he did before. All he does is drink most of the day. He even stopped going out with his friends. He also doesn't eat much and lost some weight. She's worried about him and wants to help him stop drinking. How can she do that?

Drinking most of the day!! He could have looked for another job but why hasn't he? That's serious, she will have to take his husband to a doctor or psychologist to find out the reason and solution to his problem which sounds strange!

it's a good thing that she is ready to help him to move of this bad habit however the guy also should co-orperate and feel willing to get out of it

this guy is on a road to destruction and she needs to take him to therapy or something cause it sounds like he is already too far gone to help himself!!

despite his state his wife still care for him and love him the proof is that she wants to get him of this bad habit. I hope that she succeeds however i suggest that she seeks some help from friends & parents to encourage his spouse to get out of it

If he still do like that he will never find another job! It was the same thing for my friend's dad. And then he never found a job, was drinking more and more everyday, bet his wife and then one day he lost his wife and hishis childrens... so it's time to do something for him otherwise it will be late! Take him to a psychologist!

Her husband is going through a bid depression!! She has to make him realize that its not like that he would find another job. He has to react if he wants his situation change. If he stays like that, her wife will be fedup and leave him!! So if he doesn't want this to happen, he knows what he has to do now!

I think she must talk to him one time when he is sober. She must make him face the real problems and not hide behind the bottle. If he cannot control it anymore, she may suggest admitting him to a rehab.

I simply can't understand how can they take so much alcohol and destroy themselves with it??
I am very very disappointed hearing these drugs and alcohol addicted persons, they are really disgusting and deserve to remain for the rest of their lives!
