Lortab Addiction- husband and wife

[themrs]

Hi, My husband and I are both addicted to Lortab.  This has been going on for about a year and a half..  This is starting to cause problems between us and we know it is just the addiction. We have always been so happy. We have both agreed that we would stop. Are there any suggestions of how to start the process together? He is having more problems with the withdrawal process than I am having.

Thanks in advance..

I know... Liscamdave's story really touched me as well. She inspired me to start this process and keep it up. I hope she knows what an inspiration she is to all of us and how she has touched all of us.

I have seen you post here since I showed up on the forum a few months ago, but I never knew this about your husband and my heart really goes out to you. My husband has struggled with these ugly pills for the past two years and I have always had this fear of finding him like that.....it drives me nuts.  I wake up at night to make sure he is breathing.  I can't imagine life without him and I'm sure this has been so difficult for you. He has 14 days clean today but the depression is overwhelming so that fear is still so real. I never know from day to day whether to give him space or talk to him...it's just a tough road but so worth traveling.
I'm so sorry to hear about your loss.  I've seen your postings before and it seems you are on the right track with your recovery.  That is awesome.  Please keep it up and know that you are in my prayers.
hugs,
deb

GOD!!! I read your story & if that doesn't make all of us addicts think & change our lives....then I don't know. May God bless you, keep you clean, strong & safe & bring love into your life in massive quantities.
Love, love, love, love, love!!!!

Yeah, I just keep thinking if I relapse, I will have to start this whole process over. And I think about how guilty I will feel. I finally do not feel ashamed of who I am. I feel like the real me.

Be strong. To me there is one common thread here, it is the more times you relapse, the harder it is. That doesn't mean if you relapse, you won't make it. Keep on posting.

Thank you so much!!
Yeah last night the cravings were starting to really get to me. But I stayed strong and made it through another day. Thanks again for your kind words and support.
It means the world to me :)
