My ex husband whom was abusive towards me for years visa his drug use and other behaviours has become a heroin addict at the age of 50! He has been a long time user of all substances/gets stuff off the dark web etc

I strongly suspected he had become an IV heroin user because he started seeing an IV user in March this year,, but he kept denyiing it and laughed at me basically, 7 weeks ago he took a deliberate heroin overdose while our 14 yr old son was in his care. Our son had to give him chest compressions for 20 mins becfore ambulance arrived

We have safeguarding involved and he “claims” hes clean , had one drug test

I don’t believe anything he says I hate him I wish my son hadn’t have found him becuse hes just going to do this again and gain to him

My son has his own drugs worker , I have one , I work in this area anyway of social care , we have Narcan pens etc

Its not our mess though why should we have to be put through all this ,

I’m so angry thar my ex consitently chooses drugs/himself over his family/his son

I know he needs encouragement but I’m really strugling to be his cheer leader when he is so selfish towards my boy

I am being suportive about them seeing each other, we tried a weekend but dad couldn’t cope and it went very very wrong , so its meeting for tea

I’m trying to be positive but my hearts breaking for my son as having worked with users for 25 years indirectly I know its a long road and I just want to protect my boy from all that he doesnt deserve this
