Im not very knowledgeable about sruga and their severity,but the ones he does are Opanas and they cost $100 a piece...and he does not get prescribed These, he buys them on the streets. From what i understand OPANA is extremely addictive and dangerous.

Thanks everyone for the advice. As soon as we pay the landlord what we owe and are behind on, we will be moving 2 hours away. Hopefully the move ,and getting away from the people he buys from or does them with will help.

He wants to quit but he doesn't believe the programs available to him will help. He will go to rehab and finish the detox period and then check out. He refuses to stay and go through the whole program. He says that therapists are overrated and they cant help. He needs to learn new ways to cope...

My husband was shot in Afghanistan and has become addicted to narcotics.He will do them for a couple weeks and then stop for a couple weeks. He has never overdosed or even nodded out that i have seen but he has gotten to the point where he constantly spends our bill money on pills. He gets paid...

I've had dreams like that and they can seem so real . I think they are a way the mind copes with things that deeply hurt us.

Wow I apologize for all my grammatical errors I'm quite shaken by all this

Well it seems it wasn't the push he needed to go get treatment instead it pushed him to ended ourvrelationship . The worst part is he ended it on thanksgiving over TEXT message ..,, he may just be feeling expectially down over the holiday . I'm in hopes that this will pass and we will be OK :(...

I'm in a similar situation ..my bf has not verbally declined my invitation YET but I'm fully prepared for the last minute no I will get tomorrow probably 20 minutes before time to be there. I have already made plan B arrangements to offer to spend time with him after seeing my family. He also...

@Seagreen I actually read your thread and the replies you received. Hopefully he will go to treatment and ask them about the medication for night terrors. Best of wishes to you :)

Thanks @sweetpea ..I REally appreciate your reply :)

@Sighs I hope that this will motivate him to not cancel his next appointment !!! @Sweetpea76 he has had nightmares since he quit smoking ...he doesn't have them very often and he doesn't generally wake up particularly startled

I offered to take him to the 2nd one (in case he hated driving there or being alone) but he didn't want me to ...when I got off work I asked him how it went and he told me he didn't go :(

No @Justmehere he hasn't been to treatment in a year and a half. I convinced him to make an appointment 2 months ago and he has had 2 appointments since and has cancelled them each time :(

Thanks @bell for your reply. I'm in hopes that this will not become a reoccurring thing since this has never happened before.

I hae read several threads about night terrors and ways to help minimize them ,but not how to provide support.
