Unhappy I need support, too

Hello, I'm new here, just needing someplace safe to talk to people and get advice.

I just found out that the man I love has been addicted to heroin for about a year now. He did an excellent job of hiding it; I never suspected a thing. I can't really believe all this is happening. I feel like this is somehow my fault, even though I know it isn't; I feel like I should have known and found a way to help him.

He has been so wonderful and honest about it. He is trying so hard to quit, and is on day 6 cold turkey. I'm supporting him in every way I can, but it is so hard for me to deal with all of this. I feel like I'm alone and that I can't help as much as he needs me to. I'm scared. What can I do to help and support him?
