I'm sorry you are going through the chaos, wondering, suspecting, etc. It's not a fun place to be, and can make you question yourself. I know when I first starting suspecting my daughters father again I questioned him a lot and would constantly ask if he's okay, what's going on, etc. It was always the same answers: Everything is fine, I'm just tired, stressed, depressed, upset- yadda yadda, if I pressed more, I would get the anger for 'always throwing his past use in his face". It made me feel as if I was simply untrusting and unable to forgive and forget his past use. Unfortunately, in time the truth came out and my gut instincts were right on -he was using again. The addicts do see their own patterns -but after you have lived through it once those patterns are pretty darn clear -it's the addict that makes you question your instincts b/c they do not want their secret out.
I am not sure who this person is in relation to you -family, friend, partner, son...so it's hard to say if you should cut off all ties. However, if you believe he is using and it's going to cause you to enter into the craziness and chaos once again -than yes.
Not knowing your whole story -I hope that helped some. :)
God Bless.
