Ciar agony auntJut leave him be.

The man is old enough to know his behaviour is a problem and where to get help. If nothing has changed by now, it's unlikely it ever will.

Sticking around is just torture for you.

So_Very_Confused agony auntyou can't help him or fix him.

just go no contact and walk away it's best and easiest in the long run for both of you.

Leave him be, he has to want to change and he has to change himself. That means he doesnt take help from you, he goes about finding the resources necessary to do what he needs to do. He is an adult, he can figure this out himself if he want to do it. Id you step in he will just go along with it (even when he doesnt want to change) as he knows it will make you more likely to take him back.

All in all, people like this are too much drama unless and until they change, and continue with that change.
