I don't even know where to start. My husband is an addict. He had been clean for 5 years when we met. He gave in this last year. He has lied, stolen, drained our savings, God knows what else. He is dealing with some severe depression and life just is impossible feeling right now. He is angry and lashing out. I am doing me best to hang on. But it is hard. I am looking for some help making sense of how I am feeling.

Hi AndreaS, I can relate to what you are going thru. My husband relapsed about three months ago and life just seems to be spiraling out of control. My husbands drug of choice is heroin and he seems to stop at nothing to get it. He is back to stealing, lying and manipulating and when someone tries to get in his way he has began lashing out in these angry outbursts. I feel like I am dealing with a complete stranger. His addiction has completely taken over my life, I suppose I have allowed by enabling him to continue..I'm just scared of where I KNOW he will end up if I give him that ultimatum…in jail or dead. Sorry for the long rant..just wanted you to know you are not alone in this. My husband often tells me "I wish you knew what I deal with on a daily basis." I feel the same I wish our addicts knew what it felt like to be in our shoes and watch someone you love continuously harm themselves and the ones who love them most.
