I want to thank everyone for their responses. It's meant so much to me.
I don't know all the answers with respect to my husband, his issues and his rock bottom. I never thought I did. I thought it would end with the alcohol, but it didn't. And, I never thought it would go this far.
So, I have been humbled by this journey. Completely humbled. It's been only a short 7-9 months, but it's changed me forever.
Thank you again for all your support and advice. I appreciate it so much. We can let my thread drift to the bottom now.

Ime when a spouse or partner become consumed with jealousy and start up with these kinds of bizarre actions sometimes it could be because of what they are doing, not what you are doing.

We all start out this process thinking, My addict won't be a bad one. They just having a rough patch. Mine doesn't (insert horrible activity here), so they aren't that bad. Mine just needs a little help. They will be back to normal soon.
It's humbling.
