My fiance has been using heroine and crack cocain for 10 years. When I met her she was just starting on a script for 60mls methadone. She has had a couple of wobbles but got back on track and has done so incredibly well but her drug worker doesn’t seem to be bothered helping much 6 months on she hasn’t even started a reduction and she is now using more or less daily again I have stood by her and when she gets high sits there and gives me down the banks which I’m finding it hard not to have a go back she is back in touch with all her past friends who are also users I’m a grown man crying not knowing what to do I ask her if she wants to give it up and she says she does. I really do want to believe her but I’m scared I will loose her and I love her so much and just need any advice because right now I’m in tears feeling suicidal.
