Meth Addiction & Recovery Support Group

Methamphetamine is a synthetic stimulant drug used for both medicinal and recreational purposes. Methamphetamine is highly psychologically addictive. Like most stimulants, large doses of methamphetamine can result in a strong feeling of euphoria at the expense of physical fatigue and a strong "come-down" as the drug's effect wears off.

Ive been married for 26 years. The first time I learned of his drug use we were in deep financial trouble that was 15 years ago we have worked so hard to rebuild our lives. Now I have learned hes been using again for at least a year. How could I have been so blind? I am so angry and hurt by his lies and deciet. He gets verbally abusive when I try to talk about what hes done to not just me but our family. He takes no respondsibility and denies theres a problem he even has said Im a bad wife for not supporting his drug use. I spend most of my time wondering if hes high if hes going to get high and where hes getting it from. Im sick of it Im sick of the fear and anger but I cant seem to stop caring. I have and still am contemplating divorce. I can not go down this dark road again I feel like Im drowning in sorrow. I almost wish he would cheat on me at least theres a person I can be angry at but its not another woman hes cheated with its crystal meth and I hate it more then anything on this planet. I need to regain myself and my own reality. But how when we are in this mist of such a destrutive substance

You need to see a counselor for yourself. Protect yourself and get out of that situation. He's not going to change and you're only hurting yourself. Look up co dependent and you will find yourself there. Seek help for yourself soon. I wish you the best.

I'm sorry you are going through this. I know your pain. It's difficult when you love someone so much. By letting him stay in the house, you're enabling his drug use and bad behavior. When they're on Meth, they're not their real person. It's not him. No one can tell you to stop loving him or hoping. That probably doesn't feel good to your soul. But love yourself enough to get away from the destruction. Stand strong and tell him you will see him when he's in rehab. Stand strong.

Last week things went sideways. He's been having long conversations with people that don't exist woke up at 1am to him yelling he's going to kill them starts shooting his gun this has happened several times. Then on Friday on our way home from work he starts yelling at me cause I don't believe his hallucinations smoking other things he told me to go kill myself so everyone would be happy I'm a piece of shit ect.. Saturday morning I left had to call my brother who lives 40 miles away came and got me had to leave my car as he fuc# up the breaks my job since we both work there clothes dog everything. I am now staying at my brother's no job no money no car but no insanity. I'm planning on filing for divorce once I can get on my feet. Can't do it anymore. I'm kinda numb about it but scared he will try to find me he thinks I'm in a different city in a motel but I really need to get a job but scared one of his friends will see me. Gotta pull up my big girl panties suck it up and just get some kinda work.

I’m in a similar situation
My sons father is a meth user and im trying my hardest to knock some common sense in him telling him that drugs don’t solve problems! He keeps doing it! I’m done caring! He’s a truck driver but he’s out of work due to workers comp. what little money he did have I’m sure went to his habit, I don’t see us making rent for December
I would say go see a Counselor and get out of that situation!

Leave him asap. This can help him hit his bottom. Maybe....... save yourself.

You can only take care of yourself and you kids. Doesn't matter how hard we try to reach them they won't change. I've been gone for a month now no contact. It's been hard but. It's worth it. I know it's different when kids are involved but that's even more reason for him to go. Take care of yourself if you need to talk I'll be checking in here daily. Here for you
