[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 747081, member: 18958"] What you did or did not do has not one thing to do with his overdose. He may say it does. You may feel it does. But that is not the reality. The reality is that he acted impulsively or instrumentally for his own motives. Only he is responsible. He is abusing you and he is abusing himself. Until he gets that this is the case, I believe it is a dangerous and combustible combination, you and he. He will seek to manipulate you and be reactive when he is unable to control you. You are stronger and stronger each day, thus you are not succumbing to him. I believe that while in the short-term this can be explosive, in the medium and longer term, it could be better for him and for you. While he did take 6 benzos, he did not take 12 or 18. He chose that. He could have taken enough that would surely have wiped him out. He did not. At the same time he is playing Russian roulette. Only somebody who is out of control and/or wildly immature would take such a risk. What can you do? But I agree with you. You have played out your hand. He will have to save himself, and to turn to others for support. You and I will have to save ourselves. I am sorry. I support you. [/QUOTE]
