Hi there, not really sure where to start, ive been with my partner for 8 years, for 6 of these years we have gone through many different addictions the major one been heroin. he seems to use with no real pattern, like an occasional user, but over the last year it is becoming more frequent, with him only going 2-5 days without using, my father was a heroin addict so im very aware of the escalation to daily dependency, and as you all can probably see this is where i feel he is now heading however he is in total denile and is promising to show me he can stop, i have tried every angle to help him but to no success and im slowing loosing hope that my family will now be destroyed, from my point of view he has a million things to live for we have our own successful family business, 6 wonderful children and other than this issue we dont even argue so i dont understand why he feels the need to use and why he cant stop. i know i cant help him till he is willing to help himself but i dont want to give up on my family and life we have together for this soul destroying drug. has anyone got any advice on how they helped their partners overcome this addiction or is it just a loosing battle. sorry if at any point i have rambled but im so worn by all this that my mind is a mess :(
I am sorry that your going g thru this..have faith
