I hear you and I’m sorry for what you’re going through. I dated someone in college who turned into a heroine addict. It changed him completely. He lied, stole, cheated and made his next fix his sole purpose. It broke my heart, but I knew I had to leave him.

Several years later, he turned his life around, got clean and had a family. I promise you, the person your brother has become is not who he really is. Addiction changes people. I wish you the best and hope your brother is able to get clean one day.

I’m not an addict or a doctor, but I’m married to an addict. Addiction is hard for everyone involved. Don’t let your addiction define you and remember you do have control over your life. Figure out your “why” and find a support group to help you with your journey to recovery. You CAN do this!

Thank you for sharing your story with me. I am so sorry for what you’re going through. I know it’s got to be especially difficult for your children too. Why have you stayed with him? Do you believe you can change him? Have you stayed with him for your kids?
