Just so sad, I am in your shoes. I fear my ex could loose his life if he doesn’t turn things around soon. The effect of addiction ripples through the whole family from the users parents, kids, friends family etc. Sometimes I am so angry that they have brought this into our lifes, that I have to sit down and tell my 12 year old daughter that she can’t see her Dad cause it isn’t safe.
Then other times they are so vunerable and you just want to hide them away and protect them.
IT’s also such a taboo subject you feel ashamed telling people what you are going through.
Do you have some close friends that can help you ? Maybe getting some family councelling could help.
It sounds like he was lucky to have the support he had, just so sad he couldn’t turn things around.
Love to you xx
