Cora:

In my opinion it is time for you to take care of number one: YOU!

Are you ready to do that? How will you take care of yourself? By giving crack head husband the heave ho, and send him packing with divorce papers, and a no contact order. And make sure you secure all the financial stuff like the bank account in that order as well (give yourself exclusive control over the family finances). Can you afford to at least consult a divorce lawyer? Even if you can't, it is well past time to leave this relationship and move on.

If he fails drug court, although I don't know the jurisdiction you are in, it is likely that he is headed to prison. He waived his right to trial by entering drug court, stipulated to the admissibility of facts sufficient to convict him of some drug related crime. His prosecution was stayed on the condition that he comply with, and timely finish, drug treatment. He is toast. And it is his own fault.

Get yourself together and leave. Get the divorce to sever legal ties in case he goes out while binging and he kills someone while he is driving. If a lawsuit gets filed for personal injuries or wrongful death and you are still married to this loser, you get named in the lawsuit and you are a defendant. You want that exposure? Nope, I didn't think so.

Do the right thing, girl, and get off before the train crashes.
