There's nothing wrong with caring about him  BUT don't love him to death... you need to focus on YOU and just you for now. He is responsible for his own recovery just like you and me are. You cannot help those who don't want help, God knows I learned that with several loved ones in my life who were caught up in addiction but weren't ready to stop even though it was destroying them. They have to hit bottom before they wake up and look around them and see how their addiction has ruined them and only then will they either surrender themselves to the fact that they are in need of help and get it or they know they are at the bottom but continue on the road to destruction.

I'm glad to hear your finally going to take a few days away and go to some meetings with your sister. I think if your comfortable you might want to share your story and get some feedback from the people there. There's a really good chance that one or more of the women have been right in your shoes and can share some insight and advice on how to go about turning your life around. Is there any way you could stay with your sister for awhile? I just hate to think of you spending even one more day in the environment your in. I know how bad you WANT him to care. I remember crying and thinking how the hell can you treat me like this? Why don't you love me enough to stop? And those thoughts would fuel my own depression and make me feel worse about myself. A vicious cycle for sure. Thing is it has nothing to do with you. I know that sounds wrong but this is a problem HE has with himself that he projects onto you. He takes all that self hate, loathing, guilt and sorrow and turns it on you and you internalize every bit of it. It makes him feel better to lash out and blame everyone else then to have to face the truth about himself. You cannot move forward in recovery or in life while tied to a situation thats destroying you in every way. See if you can stay at your sisters and go to meetings with her and get help. Nothing changes if nothing changes, you need to be the one to shake things up and take control of your recovery. Yes it's frightening and I know how hard it is to admit that it's done but I promise that by leaving you will open many doors for yourself. Staying in a toxic relationship will just slowly destroy you. I pray you get out of there asap.

Sorry for everything you are going through. I honestly don't think anyone is ignoring you. The forum really slows down over the weekend and with many having today off with it being a holiday it is still a bit slow.

Not sure why your post would have been deleted.

Hang in there. People are here to help.
