Hey everyone hope your all okay. I am too in a very similar situation my husband use to be into gym and use to work hard. He claims a family member got him to use heroin because he needed someone to smoke with. It’s ruined my life and his. It’s made feel alone I just want to cry every day. I have an autistic son to think about not his habit. His been dealing with it on and off for nearly 5 years. His on prescribed methadone but ends up missing doses then needs money of me to score it’s getting ridiculously expensive and unaffordable. It’s ripping me apart. His in a such state sometimes that it’s physically out of my hands wish he could go to rehab we just cannot afford it. It’s an evil drug and who ever made it available to use I wish them hell. Till this day I am battling it with him I pray to god it all goes away but I can’t seem to see any light from it yet. ????

I did read a post where someone who was taking prescription meds contemplated using heroin as it was easier to get hold of.
Someone replied “please don’t if you think meds have ruined your life; Heroin will annihilate it.”

Hi I am sorry to read your situation. I am a addict who has been through meth and am now on espranor (subutex). There are some great services available to people in this situation and the best advice would be to switch to subutex…it acts as an inhibitor and the longer you are on it the more it takes the cravings and eventually even the thoughts about using. Speak to the meth clinic and they can arrange it.
Subutex is a replacement used for quick treatment with the plan to reduce until it is stopped in a short time span. Unlike methadone which most people abuse at the same time as heroin.
I am 18 months clean and I hope your partner can beat this…it ruined my life and I am never going to be the person I was before.
All the best.

step back and look at the bigger picture of what is happening.
hard when you are stuck in the middle of it all and you are exhausted keeping everything together.
You may find the picture is bigger than you realised and there are things you didn’t already see and this may help you to move on.
Or you may find a path through together.
Don’t be scared of change; it usually brings something better Follow your intuition

I totally understand where you are coming from and what you are going through.
Sometimes our kindness is used against us.
When you give selflessly it is hard to believe the person you love could hurt and lie to you
there comes that point when you realise you can’t and won’t take anymore
