How to Quit Heroin How to Help Your Man Quit Heroin

If you truly want to save your man from a life of destruction then the first thing you need to do is take the time to educate yourself about his addiction to heroin. Read and learn as much as you can about heroin and heroin addiction.

Read, learn, and understand the main methods used for quitting heroin. Read and learn about the withdrawals affiliated with quitting heroin. NOTE: Hide your jewelry, purse, checkbook, credit cards and any other valuable items. Then start planning carefully.

At this point, you have either some how manage to find out about your partners heroin addiction on your own or he has come clean to you. If your boyfriend or husband has already come clean and has reached out for help then great! You're half way there.

What matters most is how you deal with the situation from here on out. Whatever you do, don't leave him now. If he is willing, then you must 'first' do everything in your power to help him beat this addiction once and for all.


You can't force your boyfriend or husband to quit heroin but you CAN persuade and 'influence' him to not only quit heroin, but to also turn his life around. With your help and support, you CAN help him turn his life around and get him back on track. It's not going to be easy but it can be done.

Basically you will be helping him start his life over again from scratch. It's quite possible that you may have met him while he was already addicted to heroin yet you were unaware of it at the time. Or, he may have started this heroin habit while you were both together.

Either way, in order to really help him, you'll have to dig deep to find out what caused him to try heroin in the first place and make sure those triggers are eliminated for good, i.e. unfortunate circumstances; bad friends; bad music; bad TV; boredom; depression; loneliness; hanging out in the wrong places etc. Whatever the case may be, you'll have to 'remove the negative' and 'replace it with positives'.

Out with the old, and in with the new. Help him create better circumstances; bring in good, decent, moral, drug-free family members and friends; listen to good, clean, positive music; watch good clean TV; keep him busy; keep him happy; stick to him like glue and don't hang out in the wrong places. Try your best to keep every incoming stimulus clean and positive.

You are already aware of his heroin problem and how serious this really is. If you have read my article on “What is Heroin Addiction”, then you now understand that he can not just stop using heroin just like that or else he will become very very sick. It's not that simple. No one wants to get sick by choice.

                    How to Quit Heroin







But it goes even further than that. Your man has a love/hate relationship with heroin. He loves it. He loves the rush and the high it gives him. He loves how it makes him feel, inside and out. He looks forward to it each and every day.

If he doesn't have it, then he'll become very sick and start vomiting, freezing, shaking, and trembling. He'll feel like he's about to die. That's why he loves how it heals him completely within seconds. Yet he hates what it's doing to his life. And he hates the fact that he can't stop using heroin just like that. He has to use or else. He is a slave to heroin.
   
Bottom line: Your man has another woman in his life. Her name is heroin, but you can call her 'Devil Woman'.
 
SHE is the enemy. Not your man. So don't hate your man. Hate her, the other woman - heroin.

And I realize that in the fullest sense, it was his fault for trying heroin in the first place. He tried it once and found that it was the best high he ever had. From there on out he was hooked.

He made a deadly mistake. But what's done is done. He can't go back in time and undo his mistakes, but now it has to be dealt with.

If you want your man back then you'll have to do whatever it takes to remove the other woman completely out of the relationship.

She's right there in the middle ruining everything.

She's what's stopping the both of you from having the best kind of relationship that a man and a woman can have.

She's holding him back from becoming the best he can be. She plans to bring him down to nothing.

That is her mission. That is the purpose of heroin - to destroy lives, marriages and families.

You're mission, should you decide to accept, will be to do everything in your power to save him, win him over and help him turn his life around once and for all.
Heroin the Devil Woman

She wont let him go without a fight. So you will have to do the same. You will have to fight for him by helping him quit this nasty habit and remain free once and for all. But you will have to become much smarter than her.

Before moving in for the save, you will have to remove all anger, frustration and resentment. Remove any and all negative feelings. Otherwise, it wont work.

Prepare yourself by thinking upon thoughts that produce good feelings about your boyfriend or husband. You will have to think about the good times and the characteristics in him that attracted you to him in the first place. Search deep within you to find every good and positive memory in order to have nothing but positive feelings towards that individual.

Spend some time in silence thinking about what you're going to say to him, which words you are going to use. 'Words' move people. Words backed by positive emotions inspire people to do the seemingly impossible - so choose your words wisely.

Then, be on the look out for the perfect time to speak to him. Don't try to talk to him first thing in the morning. Most likely he will wake up sick or in mild withdrawal. At that moment, the only thing on his mind will be to get his morning fix in order to get cured and feel normal.

Don't approach him when he's sick. Yet don't approach him when he's high as well. Or else, everything you say will go in one ear and out the other. Try to catch him when he's halfway normal or at least a couple of hours after he's had his fix.

Then when the time is right, smile, and ask him, in a 'soft and gentle tone', if he has a couple of minutes to sit down with you. Have your laptop nearby or sit near the computer, because in a moment, you will be leading him to my website where he will find specific, step-by-step instructions on how to conquer this beast.

(Side note: Put on a neutral, soft color shirt or blouse, such as a white or beige shirt as these colors can help provide a soothing and calming effect upon your partner. A red shirt may cause him to get up and walk out.)

At the same time, try to look as pretty as possible, but not too pretty to make him think he's about to get lucky. This way you can keep his attention on you instead of the other woman, heroin, yet without losing focus on the conversation.

Then sit on his left side so that you can hug and rub his back with your right hand. Touch therapy works; especially when administered by a woman who has a genuine love and concern for the person at hand. Furthermore, the person administering the touch must be in a positive state of mind and being before and during the moment at hand.

Then, using your most softest, most gentle voice possible, try starting off with a simple question: “So, how are you doing? how's everything going”. Then be quiet and listen.

If he starts talking then let him talk without any interruptions. The more he talks then the more he can open up for further conversation. Hopefully, he will bring up the subject of heroin on his own.

If you do not have these types of conversations with him often then he's going to think that something is going on. If this happens and he starts to become impatient then proceed to the main topic at hand, which is his heroin addiction.

Then again, using your most softest, kindest, and most gentlest voice possible, say something like: “I've been doing some research on the subject of heroin, heroin addiction, and how difficult it is for someone to quit heroin. From what I read, it's almost impossible."

"I have also been reading and learning about what you go through while going through withdrawals; the vomiting; the cold chills; the shaking, the diarrhea; the leg pains; the bone pains; the anxiety attacks; everything, and it's horrible. I'm starting to understand how you feel and what you go through and I'm very sorry that you have to go through all of that.”

Re-assure him that you now have a better understanding of what he is going through and why it's so hard for him or anyone to quit this habit.

If he doesn't want to make eye contact then don't make a big deal about it. In fact, try not to keep eye contact for too long as this may make him feel uncomfortable speaking to you.

Then, somewhere in the conversation, you may want to start asking him questions where you know his answers are going to be 'yes'. You have to start getting him in the yes mode all while speaking to him in a calm, soft and gentle tone.

You can make closing statements such as; “so you really do want to quit this thing don't you”. He'll say yes. “You really do want to turn your life around don't you”. He'll say yes. The 'don't you' part is to close him and get him to say yes on his own. Yes, yes, yes.

Then put your right hand on his shoulder, look him right in the eye and say; “I'm going to help you quit this thing and turn your life around once and for all”. He may look at you kind of strange and start wondering how in the world are you going to do that.

But now he'll begin to feel as though there is hope just as well. Now he wont feel as if he has to hide this issue from you any longer because you're no longer judging him. You are letting him know that you understand why he has not been able to quit on his own.

Continue with something like, “While I was doing some research, I found this web site that shows people how to quit heroin in a step-by-step manner using different methods for quitting”. At the same time pull up your laptop, or both of you move up to the computer. Type in 'how to quit heroin' on google.com and my site should appear at first place. Bring him right to the main page to where it says 'How to Quit Heroin'.
 
          




                   Quitting heroin with Methadone and/or Suboxone.

















                   
                   



Then say something like, “this guy is an x-heroin addict and has not touched the stuff for over 16 years. He must have done something right in his life to be able to quit heroin and stay clean for good. He says there are 4 ways to quit heroin”.

Now you've got his attention. You need to keep his attention by keeping your right hand on him at all times. Then keep reading to him and show him his options for quitting heroin.

Plan A: Quitting Heroin Cold Turkey
Plan B: Quitting Heroin Warm Turkey with lesser evil opiates i.e. Valiums and Vicodins
Plan C: Quitting Heroin with Methadone and/or Suboxone
Plan D: Quitting Heroin in a Drug Rehabilitation Facility

Then continue to read the main page to him while making sure he doesn't fall asleep on you. And when you're done reading the main page, the main article called “How to Quit Heroin”, then ask him; “what do you think?, what do you think is the best way for you to quit? In which manner would you like to quit this thing?”

Then be quiet and let him speak. Once he shows you which way HE wants to quit then look him straight in the eye, shake his hand and say “lets do it”. Then get started right there and then.

If he chose Plan A then quickly help him to start reading over my article called “How to Quit Heroin Cold Turkey” followed by “How to Survive the First 7 Days” and then begin. Help him follow it to the letter. He must do his best to do 'everything' the articles tell him to do. (Those who do, succeed.) Make sure you both read both articles together.

In order for my articles to penetrate his shell, inspire and motivate him to take action, then he will have to read my articles himself, 'of his own will', and follow through to the best of his ability. He will have to do his part in order for this to work.

You will have to switch rolls from girlfriend or wife to nurse, to coach, to best friend, and then back to girlfriend, then to nurse, to trainer and back to coach again.

If he chose Plan A then you'll have to help him by preparing his hot baths, taking long fast walks with him and comfort him when he's throwing up. You'll have to read my article “How to Survive the First 7 Days” and do it with him, right by his side.

If he chose Plan B, quitting heroin with lesser evil opiates such as valiums and vicodins, then please have him read my article “How to Quit Heroin with Meds” and then follow through. You can help him by administering the meds to him at the appropriate time.

If he chose Plan C, quitting heroin with Methadone or Suboxone then have him read the lower section of the same article “Quitting Heroin with Meds” and then follow through. Again, you can help him by administering the meds to him at the appropriate time.

And he chose Plan D, quitting heroin in a rehabilitation facilities then great! Have him call his health insurance company to find out what his options are and then begin to make arrangements. If he does not have medical insurance, but can afford the five digit expense then he can work out a payment plan with the rehabilitation facilities.

When deciding how to choose a rehabilitation center, he'll want to read my article “How to Quit Heroin in a Drug Rehab Center” which touches on which characteristics to look for in selecting a drug rehabilitation center.

Once your partner has chosen his method of quitting then help him to get started right away. If all goes well, and if you have been able to maintain a calm mannered conduct then, as scared as he may be, he may be willing to go ahead as planned seeing this as an opportunity to end this thing once and for all.

If by chance he becomes uncooperative at any time and walks out on you then let him go. Don't say a word. Let him go. If you chase him then he will run. But if you stay still, remain calm and be quiet then he will come back.

He will not leave it at that, especially after seeing how calm, loving and supportive you have been. He will realize that you may be his only hope and that this might just be his best chance to quit. It will eat at him from the inside out.

He'll be back. And when he does come back, welcome him with open arms and then start all over again with an even more positive attitude. The more love you show him then the more submissive he may become. Most women don't realize this, but a woman can melt a man into submission with her soft and gentle voice backed by 'love', compassion and affection. But it has to be genuine.

I do realize and as many people believe, that a heroin addict will quit when he's good and ready to quit or when their life has hit rock bottom, or when they're in danger of losing a loved one. This is only partially true.

The truth is that no addict is ever ready to quit. There will never be a perfect time to quit. You have to help him by making the time to quit as 'now'. Now is the time to quit this nasty habit. Now that he has you on his side to help and support him all the way through.

If he simply doesn't even want to try to quit then step back and stand down for 3-4 days. Don't mope around the house nor mistreat him in any way. But don't act all happy go lucky as if nothing was wrong. He needs to see that you're truly hurt from all of this.

Then 3-4 days later, wait for the perfect opportunity and then start all over again from scratch. Let him know that you truly want to help him quit this thing and turn his life around. If he refuses again, then try again 3-4 days later. And if he refuses again, then try again 3-4 days later. Wear him down in a soft and gentle manner.








                     











                    Quitting heroin with Methadone and/or Suboxone.









                   




If he wont do it for himself then beg him to do it for you. If you have children then beg him to do it for the children. Begging for the sake of loved ones works wonders.

Then give him a chance and see what happens. How many chances you give him is totally up to you. However, if he keeps on using heroin, lying to you, and continually deceives you instead of trying to better the both of your lives then you may have to step back, reevaluate the situation and make a difficult choice.

You can not force a man to quit heroin but you CAN force him to make a decision - you or the other woman. You or Heroin. Life with you or death with her.

This is of course to be used as a last resort. And sometimes, leaving him, or throwing him out may become his only hope to quit this thing and turn his life around. It's either that, or learn how to live in harmony with a heroin addict and watch him wither away.

But until then, you'll have to do everything in your power to avoid getting to that point. You'll have to help him in everyway that you can before you let go. In the mean time, you'll have to do your best to show him love, mercy and compassion while you're still with him so that he can't use you or your angry behavior as an excuse to relapse.

Almost every women goes crazy once they find out their man is doing heroin. They flip, start throwing stuff, screaming, cursing, yelling, everything. And as a result, the man takes off to go get another fix just to calm him down and to help him forget about this whole mess. Using heroin helps him to escape all of his problems. So don't give him an excuse to use.

But if, and when that day comes, then simply print out every page on this website, (except for this one), hand it to him, nice and neat, give him a hug, a kiss, and a wave good bye. In the mean time, you'll have to do whatever it takes to influence him in a positive manner in order to inspire and motivate him to take action, stay clean and turn his life around.

If you want to save your man from that Devil woman then you're going to have to do whatever it takes to help him get clean and stay clean for good. You cant just say, stay home, quit and that's it. It doesn't work that way. He's going to need all the help he can get.

Furthermore, that devil women also has a pimp. And his name is the dope-man, the dealer, or the devil himself. Erase the dope-mans phone number from your mans cell phone. You may even have to get his phone number changed as well. Do whatever it takes to put a stop to this madness once and for all and make it as difficult as possible for him to even consider seeing that devil woman ever again.

Then let him choose which quitting method he wants to use
to quit heroin and then help and support him every step of the way. You may also want to locate the nearest NA meeting in your area by visiting the NA website www.NA.org and start attending meetings with him as many times as you can, or at least bring him there.
 
                     Quitting heroin with Methadone and/or Suboxone.
If he's gonna quit heroin cold turkey then you'll have to become his Angel.

And just as angels take on many forms and work through many ways, you too will have to continually switch roles through out the day.
 
You'll have to become his nurse one moment, helping him get back and forth to the bathroom, giving him any medicines, herbal supplements, water, Gatorade, pills etc.

Then you can help him by filling up the tub for him with hot hot water and then help drag his weary bones to the bath tub. You can use this time to joke around with him and keep him in a positive mood.

You'll have to switch roles again to become his exercise trainer. Here you'll help him get dressed like a little boy, put on his socks, sneakers and take him outside for a long fast walk. This will do him well.

Always be encouraging him, telling him, "c'mon babe, you can do it...c'mon". Once he starts walking then he'll begin to feel much better. Then just keep on walking..

And when you get home, let him know how proud you are of him for trying so hard to quit this thing and turn his life around. Keep encouraging him through out the day.
Be his angel
Then, you may want to fill up the tub once again with hot hot water and give him a sponge bath. Oh he would love that. And then help him put some warm clothing on and tuck him back in bed for a little while. Do everything you can to distract him from the suffering.

While you're with him, you may want to flip through the channels on the TV to find something funny to watch or a comedy sitcom such as "Friends". During this time, you'll want to laugh as much as possible in order to pass on that positive energy to him.

You'll also want to rub his back as much as possible while thinking positive thoughts, hoping he feels better soon. The main thing is to continue to remain positive at all times in order to help keep him in a positive state of mind. Then continue to be his angel while showing him nothing but love, kindness and compassion.  
 
                      Quitting heroin with Methadone and/or Suboxone.    













                   Quitting heroin with Methadone and/or Suboxone.












Always remember to speak to him in your most softest and most kindest voice possible. Melt his heart with your soft voice and he will cooperate.

Never argue. Never yell. Angels don't yell.
You're there to help him. And in reality, at this moment, you are an angel - his angel. And if you don't help him then who will?

If he's going to quit heroin with prescription medications such as valiums, vicodins, suboxone or methadone, then help him by contacting and finding the right doctor to help him get on a short term low dose program. Take him or go with him to see the doctor.

Get involved as much as you can.
You can even have him sign a permission paper to allow the doctor to share his medical information with you. You'll need to learn his dosage instructions as you will be the one administering his medications to him.

All you have to do is be there for him. Be his angel. Help him quit dope, stay clean and turn his life around. And in doing so, you will save his soul.

Heroin is the hardest thing in the world to quit,
so if he fails then try try again. There is no other drug like heroin. She wont let him go without a fight. But if you love this guy that much then he must be worth fighting for. Therefore, do everything you can to help him.

Worse case scenario:
If you simply can't get through to your man then send him a text message with my website address:  www.HowtoQuitHeroin.com

That's it. Nothing more, nothing less. Don't add any other words to the text message.
And then hopefully, he'll visit my website just out of curiosity. From there, the rest is up to him. Anything can happen. So let's hope for the best.

Whatever you do, don't give up now.
Don't ever give up on the people you love. Don't ever lose hope. Don't ever stop fighting for the souls of the ones you love.

And as I tell everyone who tries to saved their loved ones from this monster called heroin; from here on out, your most famous words to him will be, “You can do this... you can do this... be strong... be strong.”

With these words, you will begin to brain wash him each and every day to the point to where he'll actually start believing that he really CAN do this. And if he really wants to, then he will.

It's not going to be easy but it can be done. This method has worked for many. And like that old song goes, Stand By Your Man: www.youtube.com/watch

Now you know what you gotta do. All you have to do now is prepare yourself, wait for the perfect opportunity and then move in for the save. The truth is, you CAN make a difference... starting now. Good luck. And may the 'Good Force' be with you.
