Hope your OK, how has he ended up on heroin in the last 2 year? And he’s 40 now. It just sounds like he has started late if that makes sense. Or he’s hid it longer from you.

I’ve got a cocaine problem and I am doing my best to stop. I’m 2 week clean 2day. Your husband has to want to stop for himself, you can’t force him. Robbing off the family isn’t good at all. Will he go in to rehab?

Thanks for listening.

It had been a long road, he started on pills (ecstasy), moved onto cocaine and then heroin.

Well done for your 2 weeks clean, I lived with my husband having a coke problem for years. I understand “the demons that come out”.

He Claimed to want help, he pretended he wanted help, I listened, I cried, I supported him but he has been lying, stealing and continuing to use heroin.

He would not go to rehab, he is very clingy and would not cope without familiar people around, saying that surely if you wanted help you would do anything??

I feel so proud of your strength in fighting your habit and still finding the time to help others

Thanks for your comments I’ve still got a long way to go. It’s just all over the UK now. And so easy to get.

All I can suggest is think about yourself now and the kids, heroin is just one big slippery slope and you would Rob off your own gran for that stuff, sorry to be harsh but it’s true. It’s such an addictive drug and people will do anything to get it.

I’d just move on with your life, I know it’s hard when it’s some one you love, but if they are not going to put the effort in to quit, why should you

It’s a demon you will have to fight for the rest of your life, just take each day as it comes and allow yourself to be proud of yourself. my husband says everyone does drugs these days, it a terrifying thought!

You’re so right in what you say but i feel like I should be fighting for him, I love him deeply. I tell myself every day “he’s not trying to hurt you he can’t help it” but like you say if he’s not willing to put the effort in!

He has got a point, u would be surprised, I new a friend of a friend who sold heroin and one of his customers was a doctor! Crazy.

I totally get you and you want to help him and love him which is great. Do what you feel inside is right. But make sure he puts the effort in, because it will just make you ill in the long run.
