girlfriend

[pablito51]

just wondering my girfriend was on speed for 5 years but went to rehab and has been clean 2and half years i am starting to think she is still on it,by her mood swings or is this a permenant thing, and i wonder if the drug has clouded her emotions as far as as a relationship is concerned she has still has very bad mode swings is this the after affects of what she was on,  and i am not talking pms either. she no longer wants to talk of basically avoids me what the hell is going on i just hope this is not permenant.

maybe you need to look elsewhere, not the drugs. That can be alot of things, maybe shes not into the relationship, maybe shes got someone else, could be lots of things but tread lightly however you approach it but do approach it. You dont deserve that.

thank you for your help once again, i guess this chick is just permenantly screwed up then,there is nothing else i can think of, but she definitly shows the signs of what we were discussing, and it hurts me to see her like this, i guess i am just screwed, or let this all go.

has your girlfriend maybe always suffered from severe mood swings? Have you talked to her about them and how you feel about it?

my daughter had severe mood swings would be up for days at a time and she lost weight.  in the beginnning she didnt lose weight, but after she had been on it for awhile and was using more she lost alot of weight.  she would scream and throw fits overnothing.  it was a nightmare.  the longer she used the worse it got.  she was also very paranoid.

[pablito51]

how did your daughter act, if dont mind me asking when she was on speed, just to get an idea did she have bad mode swings up and down sort of speak. but my girlfriend hasn't lost any weight or is she doing less of what she used to.

[cathy5841]

not ture.  my daughter does not do speed anymore.  she is addicted to pills however.  you can buy a drug test at the drug store.  but, if she flies off the handle that easily i dont know if she will take it.

[pablito51]

thank you again, i truely love this woman with all my heart, but she'll get really nasty if i would confront her about this, she is 33 years old, i basically wanna know the signs of an  ex-speed addict what to look for, is there a test i can do to see,cause something is not right with this whole thing. or do i keep the pressure on as far as the addiction is concerned my brother said it best, once a tweeker always a tweeker

[cathy5841]

no its not normal.  you definately should not let it go.  unless you are willing to live this way.  drugs wreck and ruin not only us but the ones that love us.  you should confron the situation and see what you can find out from her.

[pablito51]

thank you for your help, i have never been on drugs, but she is like a roller coaster ride with her emotions one min she loves me the next she acts like i dont exist, is this normal, and the bad part is that i have known her for 17 years and just started dating again and now i'am really confused about what she actually, wants i am lost. what should i do let this go..

After 21/2 years, you are pretty much back to normal. But it sounds like you suspect otherwise. You do need to confront her and ask her what's going on.

[cathy5841]

if she has been clean for that long i dont think it has to do with the drugs.  of course if she is secretly using it has everything to do with them.. my daughter did meth for a couple years and that sounds exactly the way she acted.  i suggest you confront her.  sorry i could not help, i do wish you luck and hope you can find out for sure.
