If you're old enough, get away and apart. If you're not, get help in any way you can. Ultimately, it will be better to not live with an alcoholic if it can be avoided. You won't be able to fix your father. You must focus on protecting yourself. Good luck...I know something about this...
Short of moving out, there is no way to "handle" a drunk. Would that it were otherwise.
We suggest attending some Alanon/Alateen meetings for support from people who have been there. They can help you get through this. See the link below.
If he has alcohol problems, get him some help or get away! You'll only get dragged down with him, trust me. If he isn't willing to face his issues, it's not up to you to do it for him, unless you think he couldn't possibly do it alone. If he just doesn't see a problem, and he thinks everythings fine, don't waste your time, you'll only get hurt.
If he does know there's a problem, and he knows he needs help but he can't go through by himself, help him. Everyone makes mistakes, and everyone deserves a second chance. But not too many chances...
Your first priority here should be you. If this is too hard for you and you can't handle it mentally, you have every right to step aside. No one will blame you.
But if you really love him and he wants help, help him by all means. No one can tell you what to do in this situation. Either you help him or you get out. Just make sure you're always safe, if he hurts you because of this you owe it to yourself to end this relationship.
because once hes had one and now hes addicted
That depends. He has to want to "dry out" or you'll have to divorce him.
yes. yes.
