The reason he only somewhat admitted his addiction to me was because he was having bad withdrawels one night. He was very sick and I was trying to comfort him. I came right out and asked him if he was having withdrawels and because he was in such a vulnerable/desperate state, he said "yes". He ended up getting his fix that night and felt much better. The next day he told me that he was sick because he had the flu or something like that. And that he didn't really think it was from withdrawals. It seems like sometimes he wants to be open with me and other times he catches himself before he says too much. A few days later he told me that he was really trying to be good and was being good until that night when he got so sick. But, we never seem to finish our conversations....he's either too tired, falls asleep or some other thing gets in the way. His brother died from heroin about 6 years ago. He swore he would never become an addict like his brother, but somehow, some way he has become exactly what he said he wouldn't. I'm not certain, but I think that this has all come about recently, within the past 3 months. I don't really know his family, so at this point, I'm not sure if I would contact them. I don't think they have any idea what is going on, because he is able to hold down a job and live somewhat normally without them knowing there's something wrong. Needless to say, this is all new to me, so I am looking for help and advice on what to say and how to get my point across.
