Hi Chop,

Welcome to SR. What is his addiction? You will find lots of support and help here.

Chopinkoz, welcome to SR. What I would do to help my partner is not give them any money. I would not let them use my car for any reason and I would hide all my jewelry and valuable possessions to protect myself. Does your bf aknowledge that he has a problem?

to SR! I'd suggest looking up NarAnon meetings in your area to help you deal with his addiction. You need support for yourself in all this.

We have a friends and family of substance abusers forum here. Maybe take a look there for more insight into this problem.

As grueling as it has been to help myself through my addiction, I can't imagine how painful it must be to watch someone you love be addicted.

Be well.
