[QUOTE="Zardo, post: 578596, member: 12490"] I am so relieved that he is out of your house - it was not safe for you with him there. It's your job now to detach - read some books about dealing with an addicted loved one - find a support group - I even find going to some open aa meetings helpful. My point is focus on you - he is the only one who can help him. Keep your distance from him until he comes to acceptance and gets help. If he contacts you try not to engage in conversation other than "I cannot be part of your life while you are using - you get too abusive - when you are ready for help I will be here for you - I love you but I cannot enable your destructive choices" [/QUOTE]
