Take him up on the testing every week. Two tests don't come back + when no drugs are being taken, But here is some info meth and other "whites" only take 2 days to be out of the system so if you are doing it once a week on the same day, a true addict will use around it and lie and trick you. I hate to put it so bluntly but I have been there and back. I hope it helps if you want to talk let me know

First of all, I want to send you a giant hug. I understand the pain you are going through. You have to ask yourself how much more you can take. You need to take yourself out of the destruction of the addict. They care about 1 thing and 1 thing only and that's the drug. It has nothing to do with you or anybody else, it's the addiction. Have you offered your husband treatment? Of course, the 1st thing is him admitting to needing help and that he has a problem. That's the 1st step for him and for you it could take a very long time before he gets to that 1st step. Don't let the addiction suck you in. Every addict lies, they lie to get what they want, they will deceive everyone.
Blessings to you.

My mom has been drug testing my dad lately and he passes and I don't know how. He is 50 yrs. old and can stay up for three days. Now I am an addict so I can see right through his bullshit. I know that he is using. Any way he swears up and down that he is clean. So what I do is just pray for him and hope that he finds his bottom and gets help for himself. I am sorry that you are having to go through this. It is so tough to watch someone you love hurt themselves. I get so angry and sad when I think about my dad, but I just keep praying for him.

Thank you for posting this question, I myself am curious as to how accurate this test is. I have asked this in a diffrent forum and had many diffrent answers.From what I understand in home tests are not that acurate. Hair folical tests are the best.I am sure my son is using this drug, but tests came back neg. I also understand that people have ways of getting it out of there systum before a test.My sons test at jail was neg when we had him arrested because heqas drinking and had been up for a few days and acting out.someone told me on this site that being up for days could be a sign of bi-polar. Maybe it could. But one thing I know if the tests come back pos. I would belive them and do as another here suggested wait until he admits it will save you much heartache.Do not enable, I have and its not working if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it prob is. Join a support group you can not help an addict until they help themself. you can only love them not help them. It must be up to them to do that.D

Thank you to all that replied, I appreciate your support and pryaers. My next question is am I going to have to actually see him do it in order for him to admit it? Should I get a hidden camera?

Everything that comes out of an addicts mouth is a lie!
It was only when I got clean that I began to learn what it means to be honest. I still have to struggle with this but I have improved exponentally.

I guess I could lie and say I am a therapist? But then I would be lying all over again.
I am just another addict that is all.

I lied to my wife over and over and over again. The truth is we are all liars!! We are good at reading people and telling them what they want to hear to get us out of the hot seat. The test the Dr. gave should be pretty accurate, I wish you the best and you both will be in my prayers.
