the more your words become fact and not fiction he will try all sorts to get you to change your mind ,the down side is that he may actually go too far and so you must now look after your safety,literally,he needs to know not wonder that you are doing this because of his behavior,that he has had the help he wanted and has thrown it back in your face,,unfortunately the drugs won and he knows this too,,he knows he is a weak man that without you he has little else and more than likely he will continue with the drugs and them blame that fact on you abandoning him,,it is the way of the weak addict,,you however are strong but you are not unbreakable,be careful and do what you have to do,this isnt about him anymore it is about you and what you want from your life.if you need the help of the police CALL THEM,if there is a friendly neighbor who could come to your aid,,use them,,yes you would have to tell them but so what,,i would rather that than suffer at the hands of someone unstable through fear.keep yourself busy and make your life your own.i wish you all the luck in the world,

You are doing the right thing! This story sounds so familiar. My wife was married to a meth addict who was also manufacturing. He made lots of promises and also got very aggressive with her due to the paranoia he started experiencing. He always thought she was working with the police to bug their house, his car, his electric shaver, etc. There was a raid one night at their house and she was caught in the middle of it. He went to jail and was released until the sentencing. During that time he was arrested for shoplifting sudafed to use in manufacturing. While he was in jail the second time she was finally able to move her things out and she has never turned back.
Meth is a nasty monster and it takes something very drastic to get a user to quit using. In the meantime you know you have done everything you can do to help him and stay beside him. Now it is time that you just make sure you take care of you. There is no more you can do for him and it is time for the system to take over. Having him put in jail is more of a tough love situation and it sounds like this is his last resort. You can't keep yourself in harms way any more.
God Bless You as you walk out of this fire. It sounds like you have been through hell. Take care of YOU for a while. A good life is on it's way.

fowl, i'm sorry you're going nonetheless this. Meth habit is an extremely selfish act that destroys households. the superb you're able to do now for the sake of your boys is to record for divorce as your spouse won't be in a position to be depended on. because of the fact that she has threatened injury and bodily hit you, you could record a restraining order and paintings with close by police. the precedence is to guard your boys. If there is a thank you to bypass someplace else (double examine along with your lawyer) than gain this. it is a shame there are shelters for women and young ones, yet no longer for fathers. stable success.

Get him out of your house and get a restraining order against him. If he's in jail now, get an order of protection from the court. You know better than most of us how unpredictable a meth head is. He may end up killing you. After he finally crashes the next time around, get your stuff and get out. Personally, I wouldn't wait til the next time. Meth or no meth, he is abusing you and you don't deserve that. He has to deal with his own issues. It has went past the point where you can help him. He needs to straighten himself up for himself. If he does it for you, he will blame all his failures on you. You cannot save him. He must save himself and most important, you MUST save YOURSELF!

This is me again too - the former drug addict. I know it is hard for you to think about what's best for you right now because you are so wrapped up in him, but believe me, you are doing the best thing for both of you. I ended up realizing that my own brush with the law was the best thing that ever happened to me. It was the very thing that made me wake up and get help for my addiction. Like I told you before - I have been clean for 11 years now. Keep going in this direction and allow him to suffer the consequences for his actions. If he doesn't, he will surely never stop and you could both end up dead.

Make sure hes stays in jail or he WILL kill you. Dont back down,,stand your ground and go through with the divorce. Get a restraining order against him and anytime he comes near you then have him arrested. You dont even need to explain aything to him ,,just do what you need to do, And like i said have him arrested anytime he threatens you or comes near you!!!! Noone deserves to be treated this way. Hes a very sick man and needs to be in jail.

You need to charge him with assult TODAY!!No you are not wrong, he will never change. Meth changes peoples perspective of reality and removes their "concience". He probably will kill you if he gets angry enough. Get him out of your house. Change all the locks and call the cops if he harasses you anymore. Maybe you should just pack your stuff and leave. I know you are sad about this , who wouldn't be. But i guarentee you he is not the person you fell in love with .Save yourself!!

If you are still with him, you better get away. No it is not wrong if that is what you have to do to get away from him. Rehab might be good for him, to get off the meth. but not if he doesn't want to quit. The threating to tell you need to die, he needs locked up.

if he is violent. LEAVE. if he assaulted you have him put in jail. If he is ever going to quit, then he needs to bottom out. Jail does that for some folks, some not. However, the primary thing is detach yourself from this crazy situation.
Crazy people make you crazy, and if someone is strung out and violent then they are effectivly crazy due to chemical alteration of senses and consience.
