I need friends in my situation to talk to, I've been clean 6 months, but not a day - or even few hours- go by when I dont wish I could use. My boyfriend tries (he says) to be supportive but all he does is puts me down. He doesnt understand the stronghold that meth puts on you. It consumed my life, and that isnt to be proud of but just a fact.He found out I'd been going to a support group but now he says I was just going to "meet" someone. He says he's there for me but truthfully I dont see it. He says he better not catch me going to any meetings on gas he is supplying me with...WHERE DO I TURN????

I dont know what to say except he could be more supportive.
It sounds to me like he is lacking some self esteem. At any rate you have been clean 6 months so dont let anything get in the way of that. Peace Joe

First: Clean 6 months? You're doing GREAT!
Second: If not even a few hours can go by when you don't wish you could use, and you have been attending a support group, then clearly you know that you need more help to stay clean, and where to get it. And you are not going to get what you need, from your boyfriend. In fact, if he's not educating himself about your addiction, but instead putting his own jealousies ahead of your well-being, then your being with him is actually counter-productive to your goal. A good boyfriend will learn about your addiction and support you with more than words. He ought to drive you to meetings if you need a ride!

That is why I went to AA or NA for support and to work the 12 steps so that I may live sober, and so far it is working.
