Hi James
Hope your doing well
I’m hoping you can help me please. I thought I would find your post to ask you for guidance
You helped me previously with great advice now I need further help,
I spoke to my husband last week and told him I knew that he was still using, he was devastated that I was prepared to leave if he couldn’t find help, He said he was going to do detox as an out patient and also sent me the site which I read but doesn’t really show what happens on a day to day basis or what to do. This I suspect is once you join it.
I was wondering how you give this up and how you felt for the first week ?
also when you decided to give it up, did you remove all traces of the drug?
I’m asking as I know there is a clear bag that did have the drug in. There is a tiny bits in there!!
I’ve read about triggers too. Is this right?
He was not well for two days he slept and when he was awake he ate.
Day 3 he was fine until I came home from work and said he has anxiety and can’t breathe so needs to be on his own,
Day 4 was my day off I wanted to spend this day with him ( hoping to talk and discuss the detox and tell him how well he is doing) this didn’t happen he asked me to go out and leave him work as he needed the house to himself. I was hurt but didn’t show him as I thought he is struggling and I will help where I can but I had my suspicions.
Day 5 he was good again on the phone talking to me and discussing things but as soon as I was due home he would retreat to his room suffering with anxiety ( I think he is still using) I found tiny bit on the table but more in another room but this is where the clear bag is with tiny bit in so trying to convince myself it’s come from there 🙁
Can you help me please. Am I being Silly.
Did you want to be on your own or did you want to talk to someone share how you felt
Thank you very much and a big congratulations on getting through this and posting on here advice for loved ones.
Take care
