I’m so sorry.
I don’t know the right answer but I can’t imagine how you are feeling.
I wish addicts would think about loved ones before behaving the way they do but sadly the drugs come before everyone and everything.
I think if I were in your shoes I would try and help him BUT when I read this and think about it I would advise you not to….. he needs to help himself.
It is so difficult as we love and care for these people and it’s so hard to let them go but if they are going to do it they will.
I just found out my partner does crack and smokes heroin and he won’t talk to me about it .
I’ve tried via text as I thought it would be less pressured but he just ignores it and then carries on like nothing is wrong.
I mean he’s functioning works and you wouldn’t know at all I was so shocked.
But eventually it will takes its toll or he will depend on it more.
It’s such a tricky situation as I know like me you love your partner , so it’s up to you what you do or what you feel is right.
We also need to remember about our own well being and your children’s x
