Question New here

Hello, newcomer here. My husband who has a history of heroin addiction before we got together relapsed 4 months ago and I finally put two and two together and confronted him 10 days ago. Monies are gone trust was already an issue because I caught him having an affair about 4 months ago. He started outpatient suboxone and we are living together. What boundaries to I make for myself? What should I be doing now? I am in individual counseling and we started marital counseling after the affair was revealed. I appreciate any help I can get. Thank you.

Welcome to the family. Have you considered going to NarAnon for support for yourself? We also have a friends and family forum you might find helpful.

I hope you can find some support for yourself.

Hi Janet

I'm sorry for what what brings you here, but I'm glad you found us

I don;t think there's any right or wrong answers on what your boundaries should be - I'm sure you have an idea of what you expect from a partner.

I think it's reasonable to expect fundamentals like no affairs and no monies being taken out of shared accounts for drugs.

Hopefully people with more direct experience will chime in here.

Our Family and Friends forums are also a great place for support and advice. I hope you'll check those out too
