They need to get Jovi help! He wakes up, takes a sip of alcohol because he “thought it was juice”.

Gwen, Yara, whomever else there is needs to talk about his drinking and he needs help. Alcoholism does not get better. The fact he’s drinking when he wakes up??

Most people would go for water if they’re hungover. An alcoholic would go for the alcohol. Especially when their body starts to become dependent on it physically. He needs help.

I wish they wouldn’t tip toe around this. You see Yara bring it up briefly here & there, but it’s always dropped.

That’s my 2 cents.

    I think it should be a wake up call for many dating couples in their 20-30s because many spend much of their free time at clubs, bars, parties in other words , drinking. If along with drinking at outside venues once or twice a week if your partner is drinking at home daily, binge drinking frequently to excess or drinking in the morning at the very least they’re a problem drinker. This is true even if they hold down a good job as it’s a misconception and frequent excuse of alcoholics and problem drinker that if they had a problem they couldn’t hold their job.

    If this is your situation, before you get married or live together, have a talk about this when they’re sober. Access screening questions from AA or other sources and discuss them. Those without alcohol addiction can pretty easily give up or moderate the party lifestyle but those with issues, can’t for any length of time.

    Like Yara, it’s very easy to convince yourself “ they’ll grow up” with marriage or a child but instead you end up worrying about DUIs, have an absent partner several nights a week because they’re getting drunk at the bar and you’ll end up in daily fights which your kids will suffer with.
