Question by MissKristen: How do I help my boyfriend with his addiction and have him know how much he has truely hurt me?
My boyfriend of 1 1/2 years has been using heroin for the past 6 months and has a serious problem. It severly affects our relationship and consumes our lives. My life is affected by decisions I do not make, things I do not do, and things I seem to have no control over. He does not live with me, so I cannot be there to look out for him 24/7. Things were not like this, at all when I hooked up with him. He took the wrong path and got stuck in a deep rut. I have tried to help him detox, and have been there for him sooo many times. It is to the point where I am sure he takes me for granted and knows I dont want to leave him. I really do love him so much that words cannot explain. As if I truely did not ever know what love is until I met him. He is an amazing person and I do not have it in my heart to walk away. I know he loves me dearly, but sometimes the way he treats me through his ups and downs is hard to deal with. I am literally the only person he has. I dont know what to do anymore.

You can’t help him do anything. His life has to get crappy enough to want to do it himself. He doesn’t CARE how much he has hurt you. He only cares about heroin.
