"My husband spends most of his salary on alcohol"

Query: "We were financially sound until the pandemic, when my husband lost his job. I thought he had enough savings as he wanted me to remain a housewife and enjoy my life, take care of the house and our dogs and eventually our kids. But after a few months of him doing nothing, he took to drinking and we started running out of money. I suggested working because I am an MBA after all but his male ego took a hit.We fight often and I see him as a loser now. He has got a new job but at half the salary and a large sum of that goes into his alcohol. Is he not a loser? Is our marriage doomed? How do I deal with this?"

Chanakya Neeti says that the true character of a woman comes out during the poverty of the husband while the true character of man comes out during the illness of the wife. However, an important thing to understand here is the fact that it’s no longer the era of Chanakya where men were the only bread earners or where women needed men to take care of themselves.
The first thing that a job loss impacts is not the income flow but the confidence. You start questioning your worth and have severe self doubts. To be honest, this is the time when you need your friends and family to support you both emotionally and even financially. You are right about the concern of your husband's drinking issues but cursing and demotivating him will only worsen the situation here. You should first try to help him by getting his confidence and self worth back and the job will follow eventually. Try to make some lifestyle changes like going for a walk, exercise or have a healthy diet. I will strongly recommend you to enroll at some couple meditation programs to find the rhythm back.
