I'm going to a meeting tonight. I'm so tired of being depressed and worried. It's not a feeling I'm used to. But the last year and a half it's been my norm. I'm starting to get more than just intellectually that there is really nothing I can do to stop him from using. All I can do is work on myself. People tell me things like "It's not your fault" Well, duh. I realize that. That's never been my issue. My issue is that I just don't like it. I want him to stop. I don't want to find him dead of an OD one day. I want his perosonality back to normal. I want him to get treatment. Just like with any disease. If he had cancer, I would want him to get the treatment he needed rather than just curl up and die. Anyway, thank you so much for the warm welcome.
