Answer:
He will probably never be 'normal,' but people are unique. If he changes his ways, then he can be a good person, but will never see things the same way as a person who has a different history. To answer your question, I think he can be a worthwhile person if he chooses to change and gets the support he needs to do so.
very rare. it is time for you to move on.
They can if the individual is really motivated.
Why be with someone like that. Many drug addicts recover, but it doesnt sound like he has the attitude to ever do that.
It can be done, but with extensive therapy and rehab. He has to want to change, or else it will never happen. If you or anyone else tries to force him he will just continue to hurt himself.
omg.the way hes oging he won't get his life straight i can tell you right now.
well break up with him and dont talk to him duh i can tell that guy has promblems lol jk but yea drugs are horrible for you
they will never go back to there old state of mind after already loosing all those brain cells and it will more in likely get worse before better i recommend reconsidering if this is the type of relationship you want to be in
he has to want help
no you should move on cuz who nows wat he can do one minute he will be all nice then hell be druged up n tryin to beat u up so i tyhink its better for you to move on
clean break,
im sure you have done your best, but even though u dont do that sort of thing you will be assisiated with it for being with him, tell him he needs to either go cold turkey or its over. If he chooses for it to be over... well it just goes to show that he doesnt care about u enough which means u shouldnt care about him.
From experience you can go back to a normal life, but it all depends greatly on if that person wants to change! There have been so many that go to re-hab, jail or loose all they have ever worked for and yet still no changes then again there are others that can flip a switch and see where there life is and could be if they were to get off the drugs and they change. Just give them the benefit of the doubt at first, its a long, hard, struggling process but if that person wants to...then they will and can!
Unless he hits rock bottom, and even then some never learn, he might be able to go back to living a normal life. Right now the way you describe him, he definitely is not on the right track. I feel for you and hope you can find someone who will be a good choice for you. I would not want you to live a life full of misery waiting. take care.
kali he will only go back to a normal life if he wants to! you can not force him to care about his life. you can give love and support up to a point, but you also have a right to a normal life yourself.be careful and good luck!
I was once an addict. What made me stop was my mother in pain at that time. that made me stop everything and do better.
Hey Kalichick, I am a recovering addict. I have gone to rehab twice. From a personal point of view life can never be the way it was before I became an addict. I have been off the drug for 11 months now, and even though I'm not using, I Still feel like an addict. Its a tough call about your boyfriend. I have my children, my husband and my church supporting me but still its soo hard. Addiction is a chronic relapsing disease. Those are the facts, you make the choice.
SO SORRY to hear this, unless HE wants to change then no matter what any one says or
does he won't change .
Has he ever tried to go to AA, that can be a BIG help if he faithfully goes & tries his best to change
( like I said , if he wants to )
The addict has to want to change. And just because he says he wants to change doesnt mean he really does. And just because he says he wants to but cant does not mean he doesnt want to. It is a very confusing condition. If leaving him for good and moving on with your life is not an option you want to work for, than I suggest that you go to a support group for people who love addicts. Narc-anon or Alon-on. I am a recovering addict so I know it is possible to get clean and change, but it is a slow painful process and I have hurt many people In my life that I care about. So hang in there and do what you need to do for yourself, maybe you can lead by example.
It is just like any other addiction. YES, you CAN go back to living a normal life, and a GREAT life. You can get your family back, have them tell you they love you & are glad they have you & your love again. Get a good job & good friends etc. BUT, the addict has to want it more than anything. Has to get straight & want to stay straight, join a group & work the program. I mean realize that it's life or death eventually, because that's what it's going to end up being. Be it drugs, alcohol or any other life threatening addiction. Until they reach their bottom, NOTHING/NO ONE is going to be able to do a thing about it. Only THEY can do it. Honestly, don't be around to have your heart broken time after time again. Why would you subject yourself to just getting hurt when you have to be the strong one & remove yourself from it. YOU are NOT going to change him, no matter what you say, how hard you want it, HE has to do it himself. You take control of YOUR life & go for a better life for yourself. One where you can be happy, one where you won't know what he's doing in the future. Please get out now for YOUR sake! Let him hit his bottom & don't enable him in any way. Be free for once, you deserve it & only you can make it happen for YOU. I wish you ALL the best, be strong for YOU...
