My boyfriend has been abusing pain killers. The things he has done while using are heartbreaking to me. I have kicked him out a few times, but always let himback in after he promises that the drug abuse is over. He just left for a detox/rehab today. Are there any groups that family or loved can go to?

Letting Go To let go does not mean to stop caring, it means I can't do it for someone else. To let go is not to cut myself off, it's the realization I can't control another.
