I went through this so many times with him. But then it got to the point where he wasn't happy unless he had pills. He would get violent and we'd fight. He'd insist that he didn't have a problem every time I mentioned that he needed help. I felt like I was fighting a battle that I knew I couldn't win. And really? There was no way of me winning because, like you said, they have to help themselves. Being a "fixer" it was hard for me to accept that I couldn't fix my husband. My marriage was ruined ultimately because of pain pills. After I left him and we lost our house, he hit rock bottom. He went and got on Suboxone and has been clean for years. If the Suboxone works for Jesus, maybe he can go to a doctor and get a prescription for them? I know that my ex's doctor increased the dosage of the Suboxone until it worked. Maybe this can help him kick the habit? I truly hope that Jesus can find the strength to get and stay clean. My ex-husband was badly addicted to pain pills.

I empathise - you can't tell the heart to behave rationally. I commend you for your decisions, but I really hope you do not get hurt. I hope the same for him as well.
