i post a couple of days ago about being married to an ice addict...
I told him he wasn't allowed back and hasn't been back more then one night in the last 2weeks..
The lies keep coming everyday, largely along the lines of 'I can't believe what I have done', I must be sobering up...
He also seems to turn his phone off, he promised to turn find my iPhone so I could see where he is, I don't think he realised I could tell where he had been even if he turned his phone on for a short period and back off... He would say he was sleeping and if questioned more would deflect back on me about what's the point.
I think I stayed because I loved who he was and we had been best friends and I couldn't see my best friend as an addict but, I woke up with my girls the next morning and realised he was and that I couldn't help him.
I did things slowly, went to the bank one day and changed accounts, gave him a day or so before I told my work, a few more days before telling his family hoping that he would come to his senses.. He didn't...
I have no idea where me and the girls will end up, but I feel happy with my decision to leave and he can find us when he has been clean for a while..
Thanks for all the answers people gave me:)

good luck, well done for staying strong and protecting yourself and your kids
Good luck and I really hope he turns his life around, but if he doesn't, you have done the best thing for you and your family
My brother died three weeks ago from drugs, ice and kronic mostly. He had lost everything before that. His job, house, partner, son, friends and most of his family. Drug addiction is a huge problem and there isn't enough support for the addict and the families of the addict. Good luck. I hope he can get himself clean before it's too late.
