Does anyone have any advice, I’ve been on and off with my boyfriend whilst struggling with addiction, he cheated on me many times which initially broke us up but now that we’re talking again I can’t stop lying to him about substance use and speaking to other men, today he came back home to me high while I was trying to get clean and ended up getting my family to take me home. I don’t know what to do to fix it

@Jenny333 welcome to MSF. I am sorry you have challenges with addiction and your boyfriend.

I do not know what is best for you but if your family is wiling to help you get clean that might be a safe place to deal with your habit.

Dealing with an on again off again relationship and trying to deal with addiction may be too much to handle all at once.

Hope yoiu find a way that works for you.

Neither of you seems ready for a relationship.

Work on yourself first, THEN decide if this guy is what you want.

Welcome

It sounds like your boyfriend is a negative influence on you.

Good luck!

I do not think that this guy and you belong living together at this time. I agree with the poster above who suggests that you stay with your family till you get further in your recovery.

I'm sorry you are in such a non-supportive relationship. Maybe that's a product of your substance addiction. After getting clean and sober for a while, you might decide that this is not a man you want to invest more in.
