dont know what to do

My Husband of 3 years is a drug addict. He was on pain pills but he goes to the methadone clinic for that. Now he smokes crack he is a little different than most crackheads though he gets what he wants and comes home he has never stayed out overnight and when he works he works his tail off. Saying he is going to quit, but never does it takes everything he makes and most of mine. We are actually caught up on bills right now, and have a little money saved but the way he is going it will not take no time at all when the money will be all gone. He says this is the last time please help me get through this. I do not want to give him anymore money I do not know what to do.

I would suggest the family portion of SR and Nar Anon for support and guidance. You will not fix him but there is a lot you can do for yourself

My wife could not help me through withdrawal. I needed to get away from everything for a week, with medical supervision.

If you have a little money now, this would be a fantastic investment.

Hi and welcome dontknownething

I'm really sorry for your situation but I know you'll find a lot of support here - I also recommend you check out the Family and Friends forum MIR mentioned too, for even more support:
