Urgent -- Husband Has Disappeared !!!!!!!!!!!

[DeltaRedd1984]

My husband has not been seen or heard from since September 24, 2009.  He has a cell phone in his possession but refuses to answer calls from anyone including his parents. We tried texting him to find out if he is OK but he refuses to respond to anyone's text message.  He is a crack/meth addict.


Facts:

1) My husband and I were married for 11.5 years and never did anything remotely
    like this although we are currently separated, we still maintain contact.  He is
    living with
    his parents.
2) His parents claim he has never done this before
3) My husband has $2500 in cash on him prior to disappearing.  
4) My husband is 44 years old

Questions:

1) Is this normal behavior for a crack/meth addict?
2) When should the family report him missing to the police department?

IBK is right this may end up being his hisrock bottom.MYconcern what are you doing for you. i am ussuming is ussing money for the household to support his habit.If you have kids they are suffering as well alnon meetings for you would be a really good idea.Also your health.
He is going away for days at a time where you do know what he is doing or who he is doing it with. A check up from a doctor would be a really good idea plz tell your doctor about his using .I know you love him but you have to love to as well and he has to want to get clean :)

Hi Hun,

I have been following your story since you came on.

I just breathed a sigh of relief. Crazy as this sounds, he is in a good place. If nothing else he cannot use (hopefully) while he is there. This may just be his bottom or the beginning of it. It took me going to jail for the 4th time for me to stop using and begin my recovery.

I would not worry too much about his withdrawal. Crack is a mental withdrawal, not a physical one. Also, since they are now aware of his history of drug abuse they will be watching him.

I don't know how it works in your state but I pray that they get him help and get him into long-term treatment.

I have been thinking of you for the last few days and praying for you and your family. Thank you so much for letting us know what is going on.

Please be good to yourself and be thankful that they got him before he harmed himself either on purpose or be accident.

Please keep in touch and let us know what is going on. Anytime you have any questions, feel free to ask away.

My prayers and thoughts are with you.

Just wanted to let everyone here know that my husband who was missing for several weeks is now in the county jail for business burglary.  He called me this morning around 3:00 am to let me know that he was being arrested.  I guess now, he will have to kick the crack and meth cold turkey.  This jail does not allow inmates to spoke cigarettes.  I hope his body can survive the shock.
