My alcoholic/constantly relapsing boyfriend is destroying our life and his. Help! Can anyone give me any advice? (Page 2)

Question

Its really getting old. He's relapsed 6 times in the past 2 years. Every time things get hard... boom, he drinks. I'm 5 years sober from opiates and in no way do I want to use. Now, we have an 11 month old together and I left my job to stay home when I had him so I have been completely supported by him for the past 11 months. I have nothing of my own anymore. Not even a car in my name, even though one was mine. My name isn't on our house we bought a year ago either. I don't want to uproot my son, again, from his home... it's not fair to him at all. But I can't keep doing this. He gets loud and verbally abusive. Name calling, punching walls... it's not a healthy environment. My mother lives in a small condo with no room for us so staying there for long term isn't an option. I just don't know what to do. I have made our home a home for all of us... and now I feel like I need to leave what I've built. I'm sitting here crying thinking about starting over, again. I guess I just need advice right now... words of wisdom... a little direction... I'm lost right now. I've taken his keys coz well he likes to drive drunk and it scares me. He's more concerned with making sure his family doesn't find out than how his yelling, swearing and verbally attacking me in front of our son is affecting him. I'm so sick of all this.
