hi welcome to sr. glad you found us but sorry about your reason for doing so. the addict in my life is my husband, i too am a recovering addict with a few yrs clean.
it does sound like she is abusing her meds and yes, you may be enabling her by buying them for her. it sounds kind of odd that her doctor would prescribe so much for her don't you think? she is gonna do what she is gonna do and there is not much you can do to help her get better other than began to focus on you, allowing her to do the same.
it is common for addicts to get agitated with anyone who challenges or get in their way of their drug use. there is a lot of good info at the top of the forum page. educate yourself on addiction and co dependancy. i think it would be helpful to you if you could search your area for alanon or naranon meetings for yourself. after living in addiction, all involved tend to need to face to face support,too. keep posting and reading, others will be along shortly to welcome.
i do understand what you are going through. you have come to a great place for support, esh, hugs and laughs. it does get better. i'll keep you and your wife in my prayers.
