Unhappy newcomer

Hi my name is amber and I have been clean and sober for ten days now. I relapsed after being clean almost 3 years. I live in glenwoo
d AR after recently moving from Hot. Springs
AR. Where I was living with my boyfriend who experimented with my drug of choice (cocaine) he is now in rehab in Detroit Michigan where his parents live. Eventhough I was not involved with his experimentation I feel responsible. His family blames me as well. We have been together 2 years and most was spent sober. The treatment program he is in lasts for one year. I am in my second year of college college. Can we make this work? We have talked of marriage once he finishes treatment.

Welcome Amber !

Let him getter better before thinking of your future together. If it's meant to be, it's meant to be... Give it time.

Welcome to SR, Amber! I'm glad your boyfriend is in rehab getting the help he needs. Just be patient and supportive and concentrate on school and your sobriety. It's the best thing you can do for both of you. Good luck to you both, and hope you stick around SR for support.

Hello Amber, welcome to SR! As far as questions of the heart, only YOU can honestly answer that. What does your heart say?

Welcome to SR Amber! Try not to dwell on the guilt you feel from your BF's family. He made his own decisions and worrying about it won't help you and your sobriety.
