Relationship After Drug/alcohol Abuse?

Question by hopelesslydevoted: Relationship after drug/alcohol abuse?
[rewrite]My boyfriend of almost 2 years began showing signs of a drinking problem about 6 months ago. He was arrested while drunk for disorderly conduct. After that, he stopped drinking so much, but began again during a visit with his family. He then really kicked his butt out of drinking. However, I recently found out that he traded his alcohol addiction for a meth addiction. He is now in jail after failing a drug test at a hospital b/c he was having feelings of paranoia and anxiety and thought it was a psychological problem–it’s not, it was part of his drug abuse. I’d love some advice on how to move on with my life. We had plans to get married, and I’m just crushed to know of all the lies and deceit that took over this relationship. I still care for him and want to help him but know I NEED to move on with my life without him. Any advice or suggestions of where to seek advice would be much appreciated.

Bless you for reaching out for help. Please take the next footstep and look into getting either inpatient (residential) treatment or outpatient counseling. Inpatient treatment has a lot more structure than an outpatient program.

This site may have some local treatment centers for those with a substance abuse problem(s), and some may have financial (money) assistance for those without health insurance: http://dasis3.samhsa.gov and can click one’s state of residence on the map and continue with the search.
