    VIDEO: "Help! I'm in Love with an Alcoholic!"



    Are you dating or married to someone who has a problem with alcohol or substance abuse? Are you tired of the negative affects this has had on your relationship and waiting for the one you love to change?

    In this video, Psychotherapist, Author and YourTango Expert Julie Orlov helps a reader whose husband is a high-functioning alcoholic. She says she has lost faith that he will ever get sober and is thinking about leaving him. She asks for Julie's guidance during this tough time in her life.

    As Julie points out, giving up hope in someone is never an easy thing to do, especially when you love the person. However, it is a decision that only you can make for yourself regarding whether or not you've had enough. There are a few, important things you should consider before making such a big decision, and Julie outlines them all in the video above.
