MariaAndal Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 I decided to register to this site to discusss and hopefully get some good advice/support system in regards to dealing with somebody who has a drug addiction. I figured by seeing things written down, it will help me sort out the different feelings and emotions I'm experiencing in dealing with this and help me find a way out because I feel like I'm stuck. My husband of 3 years have been addicted to opiates. It started off with Percocets, then Rococets, and now he's into heroin. And this, to put it mildly, has been DESTROYING our relationship. When he's on heroin, life is pretty much hell for me. A lot of the times I would move out, if he hasn't kicked me out already with our two year old son, and stay with my parents because I didn't want to deal with him. He's completely crazy and paranoid when he's on it and I'm the one that has to deal with the emotional and mental stress. He accuses me of cheating everyday. If I go to work dressed up professionally, which I should be, he thinks I'm going to see and hook up with somebody. When he gets mad, he leaves and takes my credit card, car, check book, cell phone and pretty much leaves me with nothing when he knows I have our child with me. He steals money from me and he gets defensive when I confront him about it. Long story short, this is not the person I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. I want to get out and I want to be happy again. I tried so many times and I end up getting back with him...trying it ONE MORE time. But I think I've come to a point where I'm done trying if I'm the only one who's willing to save our marriage. That one step is what I need to move on with my life and focus on my son and other great things that I know I deserve. I just don't know how to take that first step...help.
