My boyfriend is a drug addict  and an alcholic?

The odds of him choosing to go into therapy and coming out clean are 95%.  Because while he is in the rehab facility, he has no access to drugs or alcohol, so of course he will come out clean.

The odds of him STAYING sober and unaddicted are next to 0%.

People do drugs and alcohol as a way to escape inner unhappiness. They do this INSTEAD of facing their inner emotions.  Maybe because they are afraid, maybe because they don't know how, maybe for both of those reasons.  But as long as they get partial relief from their inner unhappiness by doing drugs and alcohol, it is unrealistic to expect them to give that up.

Even if they "tough it out" and just refuse to do drugs/alcohol, the inner problems that drive the addictions are still there, and they will behave in dysfunctional ways even with the drugs.  You can take the "alcohol" out of an alcoholic, but you cannot take the "ick" out. They might be able to heal inside, but that will take 10 to 30 years of effort on their part, and it will never be totally eradicated.

Break up with a boy who has such emotional issues that he has to use drugs and alcohol to cope !  HE IS AN ADDICT!

Leave him NOW, before you are sucked into his dysfunctional lifestyle.

Be grateful that you now know who he is. You would be a complete and talal fool to continue the relationship.

thx helped alot i dumpt him.

Once an addict/ alcoholic, always an addict/ alcoholic

NONE.  Had he just stopped at weed, he wouldn't be such a problem.  You need to dump this worthless mf.  Don't you have ANY self-respect?  Do you want to spend your entire life dealing with HIS baggage?  He won't change and don't think that you or anything will be able to change him.  Cut your losses and RUN!  You've been with him a month, you probably put out like a coke machine on the first date.  You THINK you're in love.  Let's talk about that self-respect thing again.....

That would be totally up to him, and no one else. He has to want to do it or it will not work.

None.  He's a loser- he's going to jail, where he'll be someone's b**ch.

Percentage of people going to rehab and come out clean -- about 90%

Percentage back on drugs within a month -- about 50%

Percentage that are still clean after a year -- about 1%.

Unless you are a loser also, dump him.

He has to want to change.

If you are unhappy with his addiction but he's ok with it, then I suggest you change boyfriends.

He can get clean it he puts his mind to it. If not, he isn't gonna get clean anytime soon.

I'm sorry about your situation. I know how hard it can be but you must convince him and talk to him everyday. Keep in mind, some people are helpless though.
