Nar-Anon Chat™

Hi! I’m new to this site and wasn’t sure where or who to turn to. My significant other and I have been together for 9+ years, we have 3 kids together and we have another on the way. While things are good at times, they’re really bad others. He’s been struggling with addiction since he was 14 and I met him when we were 17. He’s been to prison twice and could possibly be going back for a 3rd time, during this time though he has tried to do better and seek out assistance! We are constantly arguing to the point we question whether we should be together. I love him and want better for him, but he says I’m too hard on him and that me being hard on him only makes things worse. I wasn’t always so hard on him but at the end of last year he overdosed in front of me and died, I had to preform CPR on him for 20ish minutes and I was really traumatized by that and I feel like that’s why I’ve been so hard on him lately. Can anyone offer support or give me advice? He keeps saying that it makes it worse getting angry at him and being hard on him but I don’t know what else to do, it can be so frustrating. I just need someone to talk to that can possibly relate.
