Dear grkshort5382,
Sometimes tough love is the best thing you can do for a person. I know it is hard but if he sees he is losing you maybe that will help him understand what a serious situation he is in. In addition, you need to take care of yourself. No relationship should make you feel emotionally drained all the time.
Your boyfriend will not get help for his addiction until he is ready. There is nothing you can do to make this happen but leave-stop the relationship in its tracks until he is ready to get help. If you keep coming back, you are enabling him to continue to abuse the meds and have you too. There are no consequences for his behavior so he continues to use and you continue to suffer.
You need to make a decision now. Leave and hope/pray he gets help or stay and continue in this disfunctional relationship this is not good for you.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
