 mom the best thing that Ive learnded are the following

I did not cause it

I cant cure it

I cant controll it

Iam allowed to complain about it and see how I CONTRIBUTE to it

I can take care of my self

I can communicate my feeling

I can make healthy choices

I can celebrate me .

just remember you didnt cause it

You cant control it

You cant cure it only he can

 Sorry you have to go through this Aj, my boyfriend too is a heroin addict. Addiction is one of the hardest things to deal with. I know it has been for me. These forums have been a great source of comfort for me. Feel free to yell, vent, ask questions. someone will have either been where you are or are where you are. I know others listening to me helped a great deal. You & your family will be in my thoughts & prayers. Keep your head up.

 thank you so much I totally feel for anyone who has to deal with this situation, it helps to know that there is someone with whom I can talk with, again thank you and you also are in my prayers. I keep hoping that everyday I wake up this will be the day that he realized this isnt what I want out of life, its been five long years, going to bed crying and waking up crying. I wonder when will this end.

 yes, you are not alone. I too cry every day & every nite wondering myself. I however am a bit lucky that he has decided to go for treatment (again). the unlucky thing is, he's having a very hard time finding somewhere but hasn't given up. he's been doing this at least 15yrs if not more and he's only 27. sorry to tell ya that. i just hope this time is long lasting. I pray that your son does not go through this as long. its a very hard road to travel not just for him but for his family as well. hopefully he realizes soon that this isn't the path he wantas to take. My thoughts & Prayers are with you xo

 gosh I'm so sorry to hear that, this drug is just so strong that it makes them do things they wouldnt normally do, hes married and has a little boy, and his wife keeps telling him that he doesnt have a problem, she too does this, my son has gone into treatment and went to detox not to long ago, but didnt follow through with it, its hard and my heart goes out to you, my daughter got me this website thank god, just this short while has helped me a little be able to be in contact with someone else with the same problem, I could have gone to meetings here but this is a small town, and I just couldnt bring myself to look people in the eyes and tell them my story, thank you so much for accepting me, and I hope that things get better for you also. my prayers are with you too. hang in there its got to get better I pray.love ya for listening

 Thank you Aj. It is a very hard path to travel. I'm sorry that his wife isn't supportive and realizes that he & maybe her too has a problem. I only pray that he realizes it before its too late. Sometimes they have to hit rock bottom. I know my bf has hit bottom quite a few times I only pray that this time is the last time. I come here and talk about things easier then I prolly would at a meeting. I can understand you there. I know its hard. I may some day join a local group around here but I have not yet made that step as well. Anytime you need to talk I'm around. PM me if you want as well

 Hi perfectlyimperfect I look forward to our pm, yes she does have a problem,and they have hit rock bottom already, he was steeling and got caught he has never been arrested before and now its been four times, but he finally sees that, thats not the way to go, they lost their apartment and she lives with her mom and dad and he was staying with my husband and I after he got out of rehab in aug, he was doing good and went to her parents one weekend and came back high, it just escalated from there and my husband said he couldnt stay if that was what he was gonna do, this is my sons stepfather who has taken care of him since he was about six, when he got bad he was steeling my husbands tools and pawning them when he found out he was so hurt, mostly because he took care of him for so long, that was just one of the things I couldnt believe that he did. so now he goes from my ex to his sister you know her tink0314, its so nice to speak with someone like you, I cant begin to tell you how much I hurt for you. anyway I hope your having a good day and he will hopefully see this isnt the way.

aj god bless
