Update: we’ve just had a huge argument… the first of our relationship! Him accusing me of ignoring him, being too clingy by showing up at his house and treating him like a child.

He asked for money and when I said no he told me I was on a power trip. Am I hurting him more than I am helping him?

Hi Missx,

I don’t know exactly what you’re going through my partner has been abusing cocaine for the last few years and has never really been in extended recovery.

But I just wanted to say that from my experience you’re doing everything right. Refusing to give him money but cooking and offering a lift if he wants to get help.

I’ve found the YouTube channel Put The Shovel Down to be really helpful.

I’m really sorry you’re going through this, but you’re not alone.

Sending love,

Sx

Thank you Sew…

I will definitely have a look at the YouTube channel as I just feel lost at the moment so any insights are gratefully received.
