I had four and a half years clean and thought I was past my ugly addiction to meth. Besides the occasional dreams about using, I had no triggers or desire to use. Two years ago I began dating some one who had a secret addiction to meth. I was completely blind sided by this information, but thought I had long enough sobriety that I would be strong enough to aid him in his recovery. I went down hill on that slippery slope and began using on and off for a year until this fall when it became an almost daily habit again for the both of us.

We had both been doing well for five months, when he recently relapsed. Again I was totally shocked, and then faced with the overwhelming urge to use again. I did not.

I am torn between the person I love and the craving to use the drug that I love and hate so much.

" Don't do it. You know the bad that comes from this, if the person you love is dragging you down, get out. Meth is SOOOOOOO hard to kick and if you are lucky you will, You alone will kjnow when enough is enough and won't do it anymore, I hope for you that time is now. Be strong and if he can't without beinging you down be strong for yourself and get out. "
