Good morning Peres!
I haven’t been on here in awhile but I’m personally in a desperate situation and I know there are a number of believers here so.
I’ve asked a few other places online as well as everyone I know that is a believer in person and I want to ask here as well.
Straight up my finacé is addicted to meth. I’ve known for a while now but she just admitted it to me a few weeks back. I’ve been angry and bitter and sad and every other emotion imaginable. She is a believer and I have seen her weep and pray and beg God to help her.
I was thinking of cutting her out of my life completely but after serious prayer time I do not think the Lord wants me to do that.
This addiction is destroying her life, causing immeasurable pain for her daughter and selfishly crushing my heart as well.
I’d ask for prayer for her, prayer for the people she gets her drugs from, prayer for her daughter who she hasn’t seen in weeks on end now and prayer for myself that my anger doesn’t overtake me and I remain faithful to trust God in this very difficult time instead of taking matters into my own hands.
Thank you for reading. Believer or not. Thank you.
Stay strong Pede’s! May the Lord guide and keep each of us.
I agree. She needs hard-core 24 hour supervision & therapy. Otherwise, she is most likely just giving her loved ones lip service. Drug addicts are the most clever people when it comes to deception. Action speaks louder than words.
God Bless You and Your Fiance and her daughter. Help instill strength to overcome this addiction.
It sounds like she genuinely wants to stop. If you and she can afford it, sending her to a great rehab would be immensely helpful. If you can't afford it, there's also outpatient treatment. She would learn the TOOLS to keep from drugs and also gain a community of support. That's why AA often works. They say once an alcoholic, always an alcoholic. They can't be CURED, but they can control themselves with treatment and using tools and support.
Best wishes and good luck.
