Hi Callum well done for admitting it , my husband left 6 months ago after a fantastic 24 year marriage it’s since came out he’s hooked badly on cocaine and finally admitted it today , now I’ve been on your partners end , the lies the shock of it all hits you like a bolt of lightening I imagine she is on egg shells with the whole situation, what’s happened has happened there is no point going back over it , you want to do the right thing now that’s what matters , make sure she knows how serious you are about it and join ca every self help group you can , my husband has lost everything even today he failed a drug test after swearing he hasn’t touched it in 2 weeks he won’t accept help he wants to do it on his own which I imagine where you have been yourself , it never works out well you need to be open and honest with everyone , well done again for admitting it , take any help your offered xx

Hi Callum, welcome to the forum and thank you for sharing your story. You have admitted that you have a problem with alcohol and cocaine and seek support. That is your first step to recovery !

If you scroll back a bit and read Danman83 or Jamesb posts they are guys in early recovery offering support and advice.

My 29yr son has alcohol and cocaine addictions, the alcohol triggers the need for cocaine, so you need to stop drinking, and hanging around the crowd who drink and use.

My son has been using alcohol since 14 and cocaine since 17.

After years of hell, he came to us for help. Dealers after him, debt, about to lose everything.

He joined CA and AA groups, he has had a few relapses but to date thanks to the fellowship guys and sheer determination is currently 9 months clean.

So it IS possible, there are so many other success stories out there.

You will be pushing others aside as using cocaine desensitises you towards any emotion or care. My son told me this.

Please seek help from these guys Callum you won’t regret it. The meetings are everywhere and regularly. So you have no excuse!

Take care, stay strong and keep in touch here.
