I'm at my lowest point. I have been with my husband for 7 years. He overcame a heroin addiction and got clean from Heroin. However, he had started doing other drugs such as cocaine. He walks from his problems and never communicates. His 14 yo son lives with us. He has mental issues himself that I take care of. He works until 6pm. Then, he is always late, which I know he is running to the spot. Then, he leaves 2-3 times a night. I know I'm not crazy. But, He makes me feel like it's me. I know that's normal. Now, I'm pregnant with twins and he is getting aggressive like when he was on heroin. But, he is going through withdraw because he is trying to get clean. He got mad at me because I wouldn't give him moneys for weed. Drugs haven't solved his problem and never will. I'm so heartbroken and don't know what to do. My parents owe my house. He won't just leave me alone and move on with his life. I want a divorce but I know He is going to put me through hell. What do I Do? I can't make this marriage work for 2 people.

I don't know, of course, if you're here simply seeking advice with regard to this particular concern or if you plan to continue posting. However, should you be planning to continue on (we hope you do)... may I suggest you introduce yourself over on PC's New Member Introductions forum? Here's a link:

So sorry Whoknows, As an addict myself, clean for 17 years I can say give this man some tough love. I would not put up with his habits. I am sure you are happy you will be having twins, but I feel bad if they are going to have a father like your hubby. If this man wants to get clean he will if not nothing you can do believe me. You may have to put up with a little drama from him but there are always restraining orders. You say he got mad cause you would not give him money for weed, but the behaviors you describe, being late, leaving at night all indicate cocaine or some other heavy duty drug! I am sorry you have to be in that situation, but please be strong! Im keeping good thoughts for you

Have to tried al-anon and open NA meetings. These people can support you and help find ways to give tough love.
