Needing advice
(Preview)
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?
