Hey, I want to thank you for being there for me last night, and also that you were thinking about me.
Talking with you really helped a lot. My boyfriend finally called me back today and ended up comming over for a little bit.
I'm going to try to get him to spend more time with me, and hopefully by expressing my love for him maybe that will give him some joy and strength. I also need to be around him more to get a better understanding of where he is with the pills. Apparently he's broke, behind in his rent, and if he doesn't get the job he just had an interview with he's going to have to try to get food stamps (this makes him feel very low). So..basically if he's still taking pills every day when he's in this situation, he has one hell of a problem.  I guess there's some spark of hope in me that thinks maybe since he's this broke he's off the pills.  But I should kick myself hard for thinking that because I doubt it's true.  I've developed an aversion to "hope" after putting so much of it into so much and having my hope crushed again and again.
I just haven't seen him enough to know where he's at anymore.
I'm just going to be here for him, and if he is still using daily, when the time is right I'll try to help him see, again, that he has to do something about it.
Then I'll even resort to the tough love if I have to.  I'll do anything, but I'll never give up on him.
Thanks again. If you ever really need someone to talk to I'm here for you!

He is in a very dangerous mind set right now. You mentioned his rent is over due, his finanaces are bad,  you mention food stamps, depression will come hard and if he isn't careful pills will defenately come.
Sorry if these words don't look good but one thing I had to do was to swear myself to honesty and never try to justify the truth to my convienence.
Don't enable him or he will use again.

Don't baby him he is a grown man.

Good luck
