Question Need advice

Hi,
my son has been a drug addict for the last 11 years. He is clean and in a methadoan program for 3 months now. Has tried to find work but has not been successful. He seems content being at home, having his ten dollars a day for cigaretts and having no contact with anyone except family. I try to talk to him about how unhealthy this is and he should see a counselor for depression. He refuses because he doesn't like to talk much and as far as a job he blames the economy. Even though i have printed out jobs from craigs list. The jobs he has applied for and had gone on interviews just don't call him back with his job history.
When he was using i had given him an ultimanum that he could not live at home and i did have him leave and was homeless many times.
What do i do now that he's clean? I just want to do what is right for him. Am i wrong?
