Boss that uses freely in workplace...

I'm currently on unemployment.
I used the time to organize my life, & quit using drugs.
My boss called today. She uses like crazy, & even when she isn't has prescribed painkillers that she needs to live. (we think)
Umm, it's tons, smoking and coffee too. Which, I had quit smoking while working but didn't make it..
They smoke pot, & have even used coke while I've been on shift, in every room...Weed all day long, it's how they live, & I used to too..
I do not want to post too much about the job itself...In the interest of their and my anonymity...But, it was bad.
She's also abusive, & I'm pretty much a doormat IRL.. (adult child of an alcoholic)
Wednesday, I have to go out to their house, & discuss whether or not I want to come back to work for them.. I'm terrified.
I should probably mention that we're also friends, & have been for over a decade. She's rich, & powerful. I do like her.
But, I don't want to go back...
She's very good at using guilt and psychology as weapons, & is real pushy. She'll even make threats to get what she wants..

I let it drop on the phone that I got clean..I'm hoping they'll decide on their own to let me go.

(I hope this is the right place for this post...I wasn't sure where to put it.)
