So essentially you are saying any addict out there doesn’t deserve a partner/someone to support and help them? Without hesitation I should walk away from the guy I have built a life with and love ?
I understand how much addiction can change a person. But my other half has never been violent or abusive. EVER. He is one of the kindest, caring, loving men I’ve ever met. That alone to me is worth fighting for.
His addiction isn’t his fault. It’s a hard battle. He is actively trying to get better and has come a long way to where he was before he met me. That tells me I’m doing right by sticking by him.
I come on here to find out if therapy is a good way of overcoming addiction. Or atleast a step in the right direction. After hearing opinions elsewhere, my mind is at rest.
But thank you for your insight. Some people can’t be helped. And I don’t want years of this. But I know my partner isn’t some monster. And is worth fighting for & I’m confident this won’t be forever. And the person I’ll have at the end of it will have been worth the fight.
