Thank you for your posts. Your situation was very similar to mine, life with your love one addicted to crack. Your strength in detaching and moving on with your life helped and inspired me. You also have dealt with the stalking.........that too I experienced, but to an extreme that required an order of protection. In addition to the order, I had to move very far away to keep myself safe.
It is difficult healing, the aftermath is tremendous. I cannot even comprehend going out with someone. Being around people drinking bothers me, my mind still goes places I wish it would not - I will ask myself - "are they doing drugs too", if they get so drunk, what else are they doing - ugh - really who wants to think about that crap. Some day I will be free of the bad memories.
Thank you.
