      Hi

      I’m new on here but needing an outlet as feel so alone with what I am coping with.

      My partner is currently coming off “subs” these are tablet based opiods given to people who have previously been on heroin. He has finally sort help from a recovery’s officer however being together 3 years I am not finding out that he was a previous heroin addict almost other things and this was all hidden from me . He is and wants to get well and told me he wants a like with me and my teenagers but I am just exhausted emotionally with everything that has been thrown at me …the lies , the mood swings , the self obsessiveness , the feeling of being a maid to him in my own home , I try to talk to him but he becomes defensive . All this came out when two weeks ago he went missing for 4 hours and when I called him he said he had driven to go and commit suiside as I was better off without him . I’m 42 this year he is 43 and after coming out of a 15 year bad relationship I never thought I would have been drawn in by someone with an addictive personality and a former habit which keeps reappearing in different forms . I wait on him hand and foot but that just makes him lazy and not do anything but then I feel guilty for being angry with him for behaving the way he is with me . I know he loves me but these side effects of coming off those tablets are wrecking life and I’m not sure if he will even stick to staying off them . He’s already threatened just to go again and reminded me of what happens when he disappears so I feel trapped in not being able to have an opinion incase I make things worse
