Ways to Help an Alcoholic: Has Weed Changed Him Beyond Repair?

Question by van_wright: Has weed changed him beyond repair?
I’ve been with my boyfriend for 3 years. He didn’t smoke weed -he was actually against it- until last summer. He started by saying it’d be occasional and did it once every two months or so. It climbed up to a few times a week, then to everyday. At that point I did something I probably shouldn’t have done; I set a limit of once a month and told him that if he didn’t respect that, I’d be gone. He wasn’t totally fine with it, but respected it for a few months. He started getting angrier about being ”controlled”, so I told him he could do it once a week as long as he controls himself. He decided we needed a break and during the week we weren’t with each other, he smoked weed everyday, multiple times a day. When we got back together, he said he didn’t want to stay with me if he had to do it less than twice a month.
