My parter was an addict but got clean for 10 years and got a job. We have a few kids and he’s had a new job for 2 years and this new place has cocaine use quite freely. So from being clean he is now back to square one. He owes most of his wage out weekly which leaves us with nothing for bills or food. I’ve got the kids to look after and I’ve got people chasing me for bills and rent. I am beyond breaking point with it all. You can imagine how he gets when I ask him to stop. He made an appointment with the drug team but didn’t attend and won’t rebook another and they won’t let me book him one. I don’t know what to do any more. I’m an emotional wreck with no one to turn to or talk to and not a penny to my name. He has no family to turn to if I kicked him out. Any advice anyone?

Hi, sorry to hear what you’re going through, I completely understand and know how lonely it can be. Its the hardest thing to come to terms with, but if you’re with someone who doesn’t want to get help (or worse, doesn’t think they need it) the situation is not going to get better. Its awful to think of them being on their own if you make them leave, but the whole time they are in a situation where someone else takes care of them and they are able to – for want of a better phrase – get away with it, they will generaly continue to do so.. I really hope you find the best solution for your family x
