My fiance and I have been together for 2 years. He is the only father my 2 year old son has even known. Before we met he had a drug problem. He has been clean the entire time we’ve been together-until now. He started using again about 6 weeks ago and it has gotten progressively worse. He steals money, disappears for days, stole keys and money I had hid from him for his own safety. We went to NA and he liked it, but as the immediate regret faded, he lost interest.
He had an ugly childhood and has many unresolved issues with his feelings. This contributes to the problem. Things have happened recently that I think may even be causing a mild mental break and causing him to revert to disassociative coping mechanisms he developed as a child in addition to the drug use.
He’s a great guy when everything is going smoothly. I know he needs help, and I have tried almost anything I can think of. Does anyone have anything positive to say? Has anyone had a positive experience with drug recovery?
