| Response from Dr. Horwath
 Your husband is depressed and has a problem with alcohol abuse. He needs treatment for his depression and alcohol problem. His behavior now is self-destructive and is part of his depression and alcohol problem. He needs help. With psychiatric treatment, he may develop some hope of living, start taking his meds regularly and improve. Even with viral resistance to one or two drugs, there is still a hope of response to other medications. | ||||||||
