If you really want to quit, you will try anything, I tried everything, I’d come up with plans in the week how to do it. I bought 2 safes to put my phone and car keys in, delete dealers nums, hypnotherapy. I could go on all day. But there is the devil on my shoulder also working away around these.
You don’t sound awful at all. Us addicts put are partners through way to much crap. And we need to put ourselfs in there positions as well. Some guys go missing for 4 days when I’ve read post on here. Imagine the stress it puts on partners. Why the hell should you stick around weather it’s an illness or not.
This is my opinion, if the addict is not prepared to admit he has a problem or she. And is not willing to try and get help, why should the partner stick around and ruin your life aswell. I guess it’s each to there own, and when u love some one you just want to do the best for them and want them to be better, it’s hard I understand.
So whats he like now? Does he drink alot? Is he trying to quit? Has he joined aa?
