Good morning to you! You're doing just fine. Stay the course. Keep those boundaries in place. You have your family to think about. They can't be trusted. I hate to say that about someone I love. But it's true.
Remember an addict doesn't think like we do. When they're active, they have no concept of money and other matters. I'm with Megan about the phone. Go get some rest when you can young lady.
Live strong, Karilynn

Ok, now I want to get this straight. He went through his whole paycheck, didn't give you any of it, he is now broke, and wants you to give him some of the little bit you have to live off of? Good for you for thinking of yourself. You need to take care of you. He can take care of himself.
It is hard to watch them sink into the disease. It is hard to watch the person we love slowly lose themselves in the disease.
Focus on you.
Much Love,

mandy yes you understood correctly. but i have gotten stronger with the help of all of my friends here and i have my hp beside me. thanks for all your replies with out all of you i don't know how i would have ever survived
When I started the "Let Go Let God" it was easy to say it and believe it, the hard part came with trusting my HP would do what is best for me and my A. Letting go is good though, you are on the right path, taking care of you! Last year my "lightbulb" moment came when I realized if I don't take care of me who will? I am no good to my family, my sons, now my grandchildren, or my friends if I am not good to myself. Do what you think is right, trust yourself, (that is hard to do also) Hang in there, you have so much support....
