Sorry to hear about your problem. Me husband took pills but thank God he got off them himself.
Yo have to have tell him how much you love him and the pills he is taking are addicting for him. Maybe a close friend who really knows him or a shrink ( I know, but they help the most)
Being a wife is no license to nag men hate that.
Good Luck I am mature.. hope this helps a little.

My heart goes out to you.
Congratulations on your new baby.
Your husband is unavailable right now. You need to take care of yourself and surround yourself with loving and caring people. Many have gone through similar situations with their loved ones. You are not alone.
I found Al-Anon and Nar-Anon groups to be wonderful resources for me when my partner was using. They gave me the love and support I needed as well as the tools to take care of myself. I have made lifelong friends that have been there for me in crises and in good times when my partner couldn't. No one judged me or told me what to do, they just loved me and supported me and shared their experience, hope and strength.
Trying to get someone that is using drugs to give me what I want or need is like going to the hardware store for a loaf of bread. It doesn't work.
You can tell your husband what you have noticed (that he is using drugs) and how you feel (you feel alone), and what you would like (for him to stop using or to get help), but you cannot make him change what he is doing. If he quits after you tell him this, great! If he doesn't, to harp on him, hassle him, get rid of his drugs or try to control him will only bring resentment. If he's addicted, he may tell you he's sorry and really mean it and then hide his drug use from you.
Honestly, Al-Anon and Nar-Anon saved my life. Living with an addict can be crazy making. The literature, meetings and people in the program changed my life and I am grateful, even to my addict for my own recovery.
Kind regards.

it sounds to me that you should seek a councilor
and not a bunch of loosers that have nothing better to do
than try and answer questions on line.
go to a treatment center
they can give you professional advice and a safe place to stay
if he does not want to go with you
GO WITHOUT HIM
HE SHOULD BE thinking of you and your child,not himself
my neice is going through the same thimg right now
if you have to get away from him
and that thing about loosers on line advice.
that has nothing to do with me HA HA

First see a psychiatrist, and if you can persuade him to go with you then do so. If not, go by yourself, and see what he/she tells you to do. He/she will most likely tell you what to do, and may suggest therapy sessions, or something similar. Good luck with everything.

i think i would suggest a counsler as well, has he been subscribed these pills or is he taking the illegally? if legally you and him should go speak with the doc that put him on the pills, and see if he has any suggestions or maybe the doc can lower his dosage....i dunno good luck with this

you need to ask for help from your parents, or from the parents of your husband. you need to really work that out immediately before matters ger worse.

well, i would suggest seeing a counserlor for the both of you..and if he refuses to go then go by yourself and get some supportive ideas.
You have a baby to think about.
