What are the real signs that someone is high on heroin?
Nodding out, scratching, animated one second....drifting the next, smoking HEAVY, pinned eyes, eating and drinking EVERYTHING with sugar - hope that helps
Now about calling the dealer... THAT IS A VERY DANGEROUS IDEA - (Not all dealers are the "main man" - they are the little guppies in the pond and they answer to a bigger fish who take threats very seriously) and if the bigger fish get a hint that someone has threatened to drop a dime = call the cops .. things can get really ugly and (usually they want the person silenced if you get my drift OR something might happen to your husband (bad dope), some sort of accident .. but first and foremost you don't want to jeopardize your safety and ESPECIALLY your children's. (also you need to take into consideration if you make a threat now - and lets say a few months down the road a bust takes place) because you made u make a threat in their mind YOU STICK OUT LIKE A SORE THUMB
And the reality is this YOUR HUSBAND IS A GROWN MAN - No one is holding a gun to his head saying come buy dope from me - he is choosing to because HE IS AN ADDICT - if his connection gets busted he'll just find a replacement. The dealer isn't the problem - the addiction is .. and you can take the dealer out of the picture, but until your husband confronts his addiction and 'deals' with it ... the problem is still going to be there. Drugs are everywhere - and as long as he is active in his addiction where ever he goes .. there he is and you can bet his companion (addiction) is right there with him.
The best thing you could do for your husband is to educate yourself .. learn all that you can about his drug addiction ... learn all that you can about what it does to a person what behaviors it cause .. learn all about enabling, codependency and detachment - apply what you've learned to your life ... He's gonna do what he's gonna do no matter what and there isn't anything you can do to stop him ... He has an addiction .. it is his and it belongs solely to him .. he is the only one that can stop it (the battle belongs to him) if he isn't ready or doesn't want to then he will continue to use REGARDLESS .. You didn't cause it .. you can't control it nor cure it .. there is nothing you can do to stop it .. but you can take all the engery that you would be using to try and fight his battle .. put it into taking care you and your kids ... Let go and let God take care of him.
Easier said then done, but possible .. Stick around here .. You're in good hands
