He has lost several jobs over the years for drinking at the workplace or showing up for work drunk. He lost his driver's license for drunk-driving, and his drinking has placed a considerable strain on his marriage. He has tried several self-help programs as well as Alcoholic's Anonymous, all with little success. He has been hospitalized on several occasions over the years.
