Lizette my spouse of 34 years is addicted to pain meds ( no pain ) there is a joke about how do you know wen a addict is lying ? Wen they move their lips . Trust me detach urself and pray for this lost soul . My husbands mistress was secrets and lies behind the smoke screen . Be careful not to get caught up w his drama . Be a good friend but don’t look to solve his problem . Usually they won’t quit till they hit rock bottom . In fortunately that rick bottom included me. . Still hv pebble marks on my ass . !! Take care of u and stay well

I'm sorry. My post was not added. I think it is so sad that he is afraid to go to rehab because he is popular. This is not in your wheelhouse, right? I would tell him I love him, and help to get to rehab. I hear crystal is important to be in hospital. I'm sorry if this seems harsh.

Honey, I have no idea what he needs to do. He needs to take care of himself. If he is worried about what people will think of him, that is really sad. He might be able to hide it for a while. I hope you are able to help him get to rehab. Being popular is not going to get better.
