My best friend scares me when he's drunk...

Don't be around him when he's drinking!!! One day he might go to far. I know people like this. When your drunk your personality changes, and it's worse for some people. My advice would be to stay away when he's drinking.

Well, if he is only violent when he drinks and not when he is not drinking, that is an indication that he has a drinking problem and NOT an anger problem. When helping someone with a drug and/or alcohol problem, it is important to show as much care as possible. That maybe hard given what you went through with him, but just realize that that is NOT the real him! He is NOT only abusing you! He is abusing himself by putting harmful chemicals into his body in attempt to forget some problem he has. It is vital that it be discovered what is troubling him! Anyone can say that people with drug or alcohol problems are horrible people who should be locked up and tortured for doing something something so bad! This is not the case! He needs help! The reason some people drink heavily is to numb emotional pain! The fact that he is a wonderful loving person when he doesn't drink, is a sign that that is how he actually is! There are several drug and alcohol centers where people can recieve anonymous help. If he seems unwilling to oblige, ask him, "do you really want to hurt yourself and other people, or do you just want the pain to go away?" I pray that he will not hurt you again, and I pray that your husband will find out whats bothering him and resolves it so you both can rest in peace! If you feel emergency help is needed, don't hesitate to take him to a hospital. The psychiatric ward of the hospital is NOT like in the movies! It is actually a very comfortable environment, and he will in fact find people with the same problems he has. This may make him feel more comfortable and he will probably be able to get help easier! The psychiatric staff there are trained to help others and are bound by the law to keep information confidential. There is one drawback however. If he voluntarily signs himself into the hospital, the hospital will NOT disclose any information about his stay and it will remain private, but if he has to be forced to sign in (either by the police or other authority) it sort of becomes a criminal record. I hope I was helpful to you!

talk to him when he is sober. let him know how you feel, i mean, first you have to make it clear to him to see how he really is when he is drunk. tell him what he does when he is drunk and how it makes you feel. hopefully he'll understand and willing to change his behavior, because if he doesn't, let him know that you're afraid it's going to effect your guys' friendships! and i'm sure after 7 years of friendship, and how you guys pretty much grew up together, i don't think you want to risk losing all that just because of his stupidity that can be avoided.. so the best thing is just for you to talk to him and just tell him your feelings, and how you care about him and stuff.. tell him that even though you are afraid, you're still sticking by him side because you just want him to get home safe and making sure he doesn't drink and drive because you don't want anything to happen.. therefore, he should appreciate to have such a good friend like you and won't treat you that way in any circumstances.. and unless he's willing to stop/change, you need to stay away from him when he is drunk.. tell him when you talk to him that you don't want to be near him when he is drunk because you are afraid of how he is or what he might do to you...

well, whatever it is, good luck! and i hope everything works out well.. :)

Stay away from him when he is drunk before the time comes you will not be able to stop him. Then you both will have something to regret. Drinking can bring out the worst in some people.

Girl you dint need this , later in live he mind hit you and abuses you bin their than this buoyed the t-shirt , you can tell him this if you go to AAA(Alcohol Abuse Anonymous) and be sober you will see him again, if he really like you this mach he will go there other, ways brake up with him you deserve better find a better boyfriend whom is sober and do not drink he`s out there just waiting for you somewhere to you discover him.

You are right to be afaid. Drinking makes him unpredictable... he is not your reliable, good friend then. Don't be anywhere near him when he drinks. Your safety is more important.

I understand you don't want him to drink and drive but, you could ending up losing alot more if you stick around. You are not his babysitter. Take care of you first. He knows how you feel about this and if that does not change the way he drinks, then I don't think he's such a good friend to you.

You shouldn't have to stop being afraid of him. This is his problem, and it is a big one. STAY AWAY from him when he drinks. You never know what he will do. Tell him ahead of time that you are doing this. Maybe this will make him rethink him drinking habits.

Definitely let him know how you feel and remember that everyone has different responses to alcohol. He's probably always going to be aggressive after drinking so I would just avoid drinking with him all together.

You don't stop being afraid of him. Some say you see the real person when their drunk. I say you see the person, drink makes them be. Some people can't handle liquor they should learn it and not touch it.

Ummm don't drink with him.

Stop whoring around around.

You shouldn't even be 'fooling around' with anyone in the first place.

Period.
