Today, I called my boyfriend over and over again and he never answered. His mom just called me and asked how I was holding up. I asked her what she meant and she had to tell me he checked himself into rehab because he was addicted to heroin. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Pants on fire

Sorry…

Another addiction bites the dust
Today, I caught my boyfriend messaging flirty texts with one of the nurses who cared for him while he was in inpatient rehabilitation at the VA Medical Center for alcohol abuse. Not to mention he is back drinking daily. I suck at relationships. FML

Its one of the hardest things a person can go through, and takes years to completely move beyond. Choose now whether to stay and support, or run away. Don't get all resentful and fight with him about it, or he could relapse. Good luck

I'm guessing you're not a very good girlfriend if you didn't know he was on heroin.

Whether or not she is a good girlfriend doesn't have to do with recognizing her boyfriend's addiction. You shouldn't call her a terrible girlfriend for not noticing. Don't you think she already feels embarrassed and blames herself from not knowing? She's not the one here that should be criticized.

I'm sorry. I've been there. Stay strong and I hope he cleans up his act.

I can understand your frustration, OP, because he did hide this from you, but kudos to him for getting help for himself.

At least you didn't have to watch him leave like I had to with my parents. He had enough courage to go to rehab to find help because most people won't and most of my family do it and they abuse drugs and are alcoholics. I don't talk to that side of the family anymore. I hope he does well in rehab and finds God while he's in there, all my wishes to you

Who cares? Theres Plenty of high functioning addicts, you would have no way of knowing if he was like that before you met.. If he started recently, you should have noticed... He's getting help, you could be a huge source of strength and comfort if you stop whining about HIS problem

At least he checked himself in right? Because he's getting help....?
