I have been with my spouse for 11 years! We have been married for a year and a half! I recently found out he is a drug addict! This has been goin on for years, he does not contribute to the home finanacially, and for the most part is never home! We rarely say much to each other and well I want him to completely move out! But, we have done this before and he threatens, or uses the kids against me! He says he needs me to give him time to get his self together, but I feel I have wasted enough time! Anyway what should I do, our family is at stake!

I would suggest that you start going to AlAnon meetings. Those people are the experts on dealing with an addicted spouse and they can share their experience, strength, and hope with you.

PS. I'm a recovering addict with 3 plus years clean and serene.
