Hi I'm Crissy

Hello everyone! I am Crissy and I have been dealing most recently with my boyfriend of nearly 2 years and his crack addiction. I was never exposed to such behaviors until this relationship. Previously, I was married to an addict who kept his addiction hidden from me and all I knew was he never had money and the bills piled up. Once he started lashing out at me and my children I chose to leave. This present relationship is already beginning to deteriorate as I am losing hope for him to recover. These last few “rehab”/sober periods have been VERY SHORT and I don’t know what to do anymore. He believes after a couple weeks he has this monster under control– only to slowly slip back into the next relapse. I’ve heard every excuse imaginable about why he uses and how this is my fault. All the wounds from my broken marriage and now this deteriorating relationship is taking the most out of me.

I am looking to recover myself from getting lost in his addiction and manipulative behaviors. I know there is hope somewhere at least for me to regain. I don’t want to stay on this hamster wheel of emotions and uncertainty in the darkness.
