that's a tough one dude. im sorry that you are having so many troubles. the best thing you can do at this point is watch her like a hawk! take all the stuff she needs to use and get help (i know you said not to say that but c'mon!!) help her find that x-factor that made her start using in the first place and help her solve that problem. again i am very sorry about your situation and i hope this advice helps you in any way, shape or form.

If she doesn't get help your relationship and her life are on a down hill slide. Crackheads are a pain in the ass.

Man get her to rehab or cut your loses. There is more to lose than a relationship here. People will do anything for their fix. You don't need an STD because she paid for a fix with her body. I know I am being rather blunt here. But it's for your own good

crack is evil.it will make you do things that would blow your mind.it is VERY VERY VERY hard to stop.you are in for a tough time,ive seen it happen.she needs to be willing to put herself in rehab,and not for 3 days either,they recommended 30 but she should probably do more,if she isn't willing you need to step back and reevaluate your relationship with her.it is a very horrendous time for addicts and families.it will not go away on its on.she needs help,or you need out.good luck,in my prayers

I'm so sorry to have to tell you this, but there isn't very much you can do. Some crack addicts are better able to abstain if they're away from the drug. There's also rehab, although the two people I've seen go to rehab went right back to it after they got out. In my experience, what does work is just letting them find their own way. It usually takes several years.

Dear HRM... I spent a lot of years married to a crack addict. There is no other way to get a person back on track without going to a rehab... really they need professional help. It will be a tough road, but a person can break free. Look into some rehabs online... I know of one in Florida, it's called Faith Farm, and is free... try looking into that. If you are not in Florida, chances are they can connect you with another rehab in your state. Does she realize she needs help? That is always the first place one must start. With my ex, even after rehab, he would begin using again after a short time out... I literally had to control all of his money, and made him accountable for every place he went. I picked up his paycheck every week, and he never had more than $5in his pocket. After about a year, I began trusting him again, and he would get back on track... however in his case, he would start up again at a later time... in a span of 11 years, he was in rehab 3 times. If going to a rehab seems impossible, perhaps if she is willing, you could do what I did, make her ACCOUNTABLE at all times. This is not going to be easy for you! She may also be able to get counseling... look into what is available, and by all means, get help for yourself too! You are the codependent, and your behavior will change as well in order to cope with her addiction. I wish you the best of luck.

Nothing will help except rehab.Call 9-1-1 if you actually care about her.
