Should I stay or leave him?

Question

Ok so long story short I have been with my partner for two years now and in my mid 20s. He's been an attentive partner honest doesn't look at other women etc and does little things for me all the time. We have been living together for almost a year now.

One night I found him banging about in the bathroom he had no idea who I was couldn't stand and where he was or speak so I rang an ambulance

It turns out they found traces of drugs on his fingers and nose ketamine so we went home from hospital when he came out of it and sorted our problems he promised never to do it again

I look back and I can now see all the instances he has done it and pretended he was sleep waking (about 3)

Now however I've noticed he sometimes acts weird, hyper on a night every few months he sniffs a lot makes noises and talks funny/no sense talking quietly or pointing things out that are weird ie that picture is us (a picture of tigger/pooh) he also reaches in the air sometimes

He overdosed that time I'm wondering whether he has learnt to play it down so I don't notice or if I'm being paranoid? He denies it if I confront him I don't know what to believe

I don't do drugs so I'm not sure of the symptoms of ketamine use/addiction/overdosing, etc.

But it's very obvious that he's still on the drugs or is experiencing mental side effects of using.

I watched a documentary on bath salts and this kid kept doing them and was shown on camera having wild hallucinations, seeing "people" and climbing trees to "get away" from them. It was incredibly sad - the kid was only 20. And it was thought that his brain might be permanently damaged from the drugs.

Your boyfriend is still using. And I doubt you'll get a straight answer from him.
People who overdose have a problem and an addiction - they don't just "stop".
Do some research online, search your heart and decide if you can/want to go through what it takes to
stand by someone on drugs while they recover.  It's a very tough road ahead.
Good luck!

Leave unless you want to find him dead on the floor and have everyone he ever knew blaming you for not saving him from himself.

Leave him  He's using and you know it.  Can't stop it, can't control him, he denies it. 

Leave him, dear.  You deserve better.
