      Hi Chloe1994,

      Welcome to the Forum, where there are lots of people in similar situations.

      I’m sorry you are in this situation, especially being pregnant as well, you should be having all the support from him but sadly cocaine will always come first, unless he wants to give up. Personally I would run for the hills and look after you and your baby, go back to your family who I’m sure will be looking forward to greeting your new baby into the world. Sorry if this sounds harsh but living with an addict is hell.

      Take care and good luck with the baby.

      Dx.

      Please do what I wasn’t able to and run like Debc said. His behaviour will not change and the rage and anger once you’ve got a baby in your arms is super scary… terrifying even.

      I have a nearly 4 year old with my addict and I’m still trying to get away. He has become a full-blown, daily addict now whereas before he was like your boyfriend… doing it once a week and we had the cycle you described. The anger and rage has only gotten worse. I fear for my life sometimes.

      I hope you are able to leave him and protect yourself and your child.

      Hello lovely, yes sorry like the other ladies have said run now, it’s horrendous living with a drug addict, and as awful as it sounds he will be so jealous of your bond with that baby, he will be horrible and blame the baby. Obviously it’s not you or the baby, the problem is him,my husband hates my bond with me and our 4 boys because they talk and love me,obviously I’ve been there for them bringing them up.they don’t even talk to him.very sad really but he has the choice yet he chooses,drinking, gambling and cocaine over us.yes mine is a functioning addict still goes to work but he won’t admit to being an addict, only people on heroin are addicts he says xx
