Hi everyone,
I'm new here. I'm here because my wife is addicted to pain killers. For the past 7 years + my wife has been having issues she thinks is medical and has been through multiple surgeries etc… with no affect. During this time she's had a pain mgmt dr who's had her on Percocet, Oxycontin and valium and I believe she's addicted. I can't seem to find anyone in my personal life I can relate to about this so i'm hoping this group can help. Last year she took a mouth full of oxy and I got her to spit it out. I called 911 and had her in the ER. I even lied to the dr' s because I couldn't see her in an institution ( I know not a good idea, just couldn't see her in a place like that) . Personally though I think that really messed with my head. I can't explain to anyone in my personal life what it's like to live with an addict who is a completely different person than the person I've known for 22 year since I was a 17 year old kid. She now hate everything and everyone, even her family doesn't talk to her anymore. I'm the only one there for her even though she hates me a tells me everyday that she want's a divorce. I'm too nice of a person to just walk away and leave her alone because I love her too much to do that too her. Everyone in my life tells me to just walk away but that's easy to saw. It's not like a spouse the cheated or anything like that. I can't explain the feeling to anyone in my personal life so seeing someone you've loved for more than half your life try to take their own and then have to beg that person not to do it. Then for that person to take no responsibility and blame you and everyone/everything else. And the worse part is that wasn't the first time or the last.
Just hoping others in this group can relate
