This is the first time I’ve ever wrote anything on the internet I don’t use any social media . I suffer with epilepsy, chronic migraine, inflammatory bowel disorder and was mentally abused for 14 years by my wife.after 8 years I started to drink and take cocaine, I was empty on the inside but had to be strong on the outside because I have 3 amazing kids that i couldn’t leave that is why I stayed. I thought I could stand the abuse until my kids were old enough that it wouldn’t have as been as bad on them when I moved out.but I couldn’t stand my live and I made the biggest mistake off my life by turning to cocaine to try to make myself feel better happy . 5 years later and I finally had the courage to leave her I got Myself a flat and got myself down to a point where I only spent 40pw but I crashed when my mum passed away and i it heavy again.and now im in a worse situation every time I try to stop she starts buying it for me. I try to say no try to stick to the plan I have for stopping but when your an addict and gets given drugs for free I don’t have the mental strength to say no. I’ve been to the doctor and he sent me to A.D.S and after 4 sessions off them telling me how much damage it does too me I was told I didn’t need to go back again. And I’m still in the same position but I want off this I don’t know who to turn to for help because if a doctor puts me on a 4 week counsel course and thinks everything will be ok well its not I went bk to docs and said I need more help and was told the only thing he could do was send me A.D.S again, is that the only help out there?

Hey Red, really sorry to hear your story and sorry for the loss of your mum. Asking for help is a big step so we’ll done. I don’t really know if it is your ex that is buying the drugs but that is ridiculous and you need to cut that person out of your life even if only temporarily.
Have you tried Cocaine Anonymous or Narcotics Anonymous? They have meetings all round the country and lots of people say they are really helpful.
Good luck and no need to apologise for posting! X
