Husband abusing adderall?Have you tried addressing him in a non-accusatory manner? (e.g. Honey, please don't take this the wrong way, I am worried about you........) If you express that you want to trust him, but you are worried & want to make sure that he is doing okay then you may be able to get the answer directly from him. Best of luck & prayers for you. Let us know how it goes. Yes his doctor does know he is a recovering addict. The pills were not Adderall XR but the Adderall generic. 90 pills?Is this xr? does his dr know he is a recovering addict? My psych gives me blood tests every month to make sure I'm not taking extra or anything else for that matter. Maybe you could ask your husbands doc to do his bloods every month and that might be enough to MAKE him be responsible? Another method might be to take away his bottle, and you administer him the pills yourself until he can prove that he is responsible enough to take them as directed. (ie first start with leaving him only enough pills for the day for about 2 weeks, then after that leave him a weeks worth of pills, and take it from there and see how that goes) I know it sounds harsh to do that, but if he's taking that many, you could also call his doctor and tell him or her to only Rx ONLY 1 week worth of pills at a time until he, you and the doctor are all on the same page and work as a team to ensure not only for his own safety, but also the peace of mind it would give you and the doctor that he is making an effort to control his intake of his meds. |
