Acceptance if he's willing to get help. At some point while they are working throughthe 12 steps they are going to have to learn to "accept" themselves with their problem so the best thing you could to help him or her is to accept them but again only if they are willing to get help.

Yes, especially if that is how their brain "wired" itself to deal with that sort of behavior.
alcoholic and non alcoholic
Contact the police and get a restraining order. That way they can deal with him if he tries something again.
Absolutely! The only reason why I am still with my alcoholic is because he is not verbally abusive even when I nag him... However, emotional abuse is still an issue in the end and it's about how long you are willing to deal with it. My 2 cents
Send them to Alanon or ACOA, and then try to keep your hands off. You can't "deal" with people. You make suggestions, and they either follow them or they don't. If they are unwilling to make the changes they need to make, there is absolutely nothing you can do about it.
You say "I am an alcoholic."
Tea isn't alcoholic.
He is not an alcoholic, but he does drink.
