But what I think I have realised is that you cant enable it, i allowed him to take it in the family home as I was scared as to where he would end up taking it, that he might be in danger where ever he was. he would steal money from me and not pay bills for months. but the truth is we cannot control them. there has to be a point where you draw a line in the sand and just say no, no matter how hard it may be. There is a difference between wanting help and talking about it, then actually taking into action what they say. Addiction makes people egotistical and manipulative. My ex partner used to say anything to get me off his back.
Stay strong xx
