Question by Kelley P: Is it ok to be in a relationship when starting to go to a drug rehab?
My now ex boyfriend admitted to being addicted to oxycotton and is going to start rehab but really wants to be with me. I honestly can’t handle the addiction. I went through it with my dad and his addiction was so bad it got him in jail and my grandma in the hospital. However, isn’t it best for an addict in rehab to not be in a relationship because they need to focus on the relationship they have with themselves?
