Hi,
It is clear that your boyfriend has no control over his alcohol intake and is so drunk that he even wets the bed. He has alcohol dependence but if he wishes to quit, he can, though he will need medical help and supervision. Please talk to him and motivate him to quit alcohol and take back control of his life. With proper treatment he will be able to deal with the withdrawal phase and later remain abstinent for long.
Best wishes.
