Hi She, thanks for sharing your story and it’s heartwarming to see that you stayed. It makes me a bit sad that you say you wondered why you stayed though, if we move on I worry that I will think this in the future. Do you know how long he was taking the drugs for? I think even if hubby was clean in the future would I be able to move on from the past? All the nights he came home denying that he was strange.

My husband has now phoned the addiction centre and is booked in for assessment. The woman said they are completely inundated with calls from people in the last 5 years and that he is not alone. It just shows how out of control it is getting.

That’s awful about his dad, I guess this is just the extent of lies an addict can be capable of. I haven’t been to therapy myself but would you consider it? I’m wondering for you to move on would it be a good idea to delete those notes on your phone in order to move on from the past? Sometimes when I come across my past comments on here it drags me back again so even though talking about everything helps a bit it also makes me anxious when I see a notification coming through! X
