I am with you about finding the pills hidden somewhere, I find myself searching the house, the cupboards, all his clothes with pockets in the closet (that's where I found an Oxy 3 weeks ago), and anywhere else. I don't know how I am living with someone taking pills and he's not in pain either, because I have never used drugs either and am against it, and I am in shock still because I never pictured me having to worry about drugs in my life. We have 2 small children as well, and that's what scares me too. The kids hear us talking/yelling about it, and even though they don't know what is really going on, it's still the disruption in the household that doesn't need to be. My husband is not sloppy either, sometimes he's a little forgetful and I find the parmesan cheese in the coffee mug cupboard instead of the fridge..lol..but it's just the fact that knowing he's doing that to himself makes me sick and I feel like is he not happy with me? Did I do something wrong? I feel for you because your husband IS in pain, but I would think he would be taking all his meds as prescribed by the Dr. I can't say he's using the pain as an excuse or not, but just letting you know, my husband will mention "Oh my back hurts bad today" and then weeks go by where he doesn't say anything about pain anymore, so I think he's throwing that comment out every so often to me to "justify" what he's doing, even though he has NEVER admitted it nor denied it. I have tried attacking him about it and threaten him, but that doesn't do me any good. No matter how much I am going to tell him to stop or why do you do it or anything for that matter regarding the pills, will not get me anywhere, HE needs to be the one to admit it and be honest with me. He lies all the time about it. Sorry to make a long story, but what I am trying to say is that I'm in the same boat with you, and it's very aggravating and I am sorry this is happening and I wish you the best. |
