Having just read your story it’s gives hope and Well done.I didn’t think I’d be back on here again to get some strength of what’s ahead .
my husband of 27 years is a cocaine addict a heavy daily user has been for years I have got him off for few weeks in the past but never for long before he’s starting again thinks I don’t notice he doesn’t even go out socialising he just goes upstairs to watch tv usually 7pm then I hear the draw and him getting on it. Like a love affair she wins over me every time.he is such a manipulator thinking he mr big to his friends (users).all the nasty comments towards me then he walks out or stops talking even at present time we haven’t spoke for weeks he has always manipulated people into thinking it’s me and telling me that family friends agree with him! it took a long time to realise that why would they say that and if you thought anything of me why would you not defend me instead I just avoided them.which he wants I’ve paid of thousands he’s borrowed from family friends always saying don’t let me know.that’s because No one knew I had nothing left to give
That was 5 years ago now and I’ve nearly cleared my poor credit report.Not given him a penny since because we don’t have holidays (needs a supply) I just save and now able to get what I want which hopefully a mortgage at some point.i will put on my happy face for Xmas same as last few I never want to put a downer on others.years back we would be having coke together over Xmas but 1 year I woke on bathroom floor didn’t know if I passed out or had a seizure that scared me and I’ve never had it since I have had some brilliant nights out sober as doesn’t bother me so please big up your sober Xmas and new year and enjoy it.
