Before I kicked Addict out years ago.. I was to the point of having no money in the house. I cancelled all credit and debit cards. I threw away all my checks. The only way I could get my money was to go to the bank and present ID.
The teller would get upset with me insisting I needed my own checks. I informed the manager of the Addict in the house and this is how I would bank for now.
WHEN I REALIZED WHAT A HOSTAGE I WAS MAKING MYSELF, I kicked him out. Best decision I ever made.
