Thanks so much for replying.

Saturday he took 40 odd tablets and sunday 20 odd, flushed the remaining 20 as he said he had had too much and felt to out of it. This was also mixed with valium to help him sleep.

He decided from today, Monday, that he was going cold turkey and getting off it.

His parents have offered to pay for private rehab £8000 plus.

Said that if he cabt come off the codeine himself he will go to rehab…

Now, this afternoon he has said he wont ever go to rehab, and he does t wnat to stop taking it forever as he likes it and he wants to just have a treat I asked how often, he replied once a week!!!

I was infuriated, how can he think that it can work when its ended up him bingeing all weekend because he cant cope with the once a week.

I told him it cant work it will never work.

Theres no way out is there, unless he wants to get help then theres nothing any of us can do anymore.

His sex drive has gone, he doesnt compliment me, he doesnt laugh with me, iv lost him in this codeine cloud.

Can I ask are u still using? And if so what did u do or not do, what helped or didnt help xx
