My husband has a alchole and cocaine problem he becomes a very isolated person and pushes me away or will deliberately start a conversation that leads him to a arguement. He has lied to me about the cocaine many times and sadly I know when he has been abusing on three occasions he walk out the house and left me alone all night only to return the next day mid morning never telling me where he went. I truly live with the fear that every time he drinks alchole does this lead him into the territory of destruction. There are other times where he spends all night till the early hours of the morning drinking abusing with cocaine on the playstation and I find this isolation very hard to understand why? I love him and try so hard to stop him but this is a battle I will never win. Can someone tell me what I should do how do I overcome my worries? Or is it sadly something that I must accept.

Hi RosesHT36,
Welcome to the Forum, a great starting point for you to chat with other people in similar situations.
I am the Mum of an addict (alcohol and cocaine), it’s like living in hell, I’m sure you can relate to that. The thing is every time I read about the people taking alcohol and cocaine they are all the same, starting the arguments, lying, just doing what they want with no thought of what they are doing to the people around them, and I think because they are addicts, they really don’t care, it’s very sad.
It is an illness, but unfortunately they are the only ones that can decide that they have a problem and really want to do something about it, until then it’s going round in circles.
Take care of yourself first, it affects us all in different ways. You could talk to the Icarus Trust, they would know exactly what you are going through, never think that you are on your own. I find this site great to read other other people’s stories.
Keep in touch on here.
Take care.
Dx
