try to be there for him as much as you can and as needed, but be there for yourself as well.

I'm definitely realizing that now, the think about yourself part. It's very sobering indeed.

David, I am sorry that you are going through this but I do hope that Derek gets the help that he needs. I hope that the 2 of you can work it all out.

David,

While it's hard to see, the bright light in this (as has been said by so many on this thread) is that Derek is getting some badly needed help.

Like I've said, people do drugs for a reason, and hopefully Derek will get to the root of his problems with this professional help so the both of you can move to a much better place in your relationship and lives--if that's what you both decide.

Just please make sure you get the support you need and look out for yourself with the same energy as you are for Derek.

You have a lot of friends on this board who care---Ryan
