I was addicted to crystal for over a year, my boyfriend and I started it together. We both got clean for 4 months and moved to a different city, not knowing it would be a huge mistake. The month we got here we found a dealer and we were back on it doing it daily, thinking we were having the time of our lives.
The beginning of February I woke up one morning and had the urge to take a pregnancy test, it was positive. I broke down and had no idea what to do or what I wanted. I slept a few days away while I coming down, after we sobered up we decided this was something we wanted. Something that would save us, but it only saved me.
I never expected him to get clean RIGHT away like I did, I knew myself how hard it was.
I continued to go to work while he sat at home getting high. He started stealing money off me since I was the only income coming in and I wasn't just blowing it all on crystal like before. I was so stressed and sick from the pregnancy plus getting off the stuff, I lost my job.
I'm now 26 weeks pregnant and he's crashed out from a week long binge. Refuses to get help because "he can do it on his own"
I don't want to give up on this, I keep thinking if I hold on a little longer he's going to get better.
But I know once my son is here, if he doesn't change his son won't know who his dad is.
I am not that type of person at all, to take some bodies child away. There's nothing I want more than for him to help me raise our boy but I'm lost. I have absolutely no idea what to do anymore.
Any advice? Besides just "kick him to the curb"
Are you attending NA meetings?
No
Hi my advice to you would be to pray about it and see if there is any meetings around you local and maybe attend one together. I have been threw the similar situation but all you can do is stay strong and keep pushing forward. God luck to you guys and congrats on your sobriety
