My husband is a drug addict. I dont know what to do. Ive tried hiding them. But he puts me down about other things I have done He even said He felt he was too good for me because my family is disfunctional.My sister was raped as a child and so was I. So the disfunctional family bit was not my fault.But any time I get close to the subject of taking away his fix he goes insane and begins to verbally abuse me I am constantly searching for his love I try to forget about mentioning drug abuse to him so we can somehow fix our disfunctional relationship. But he is gone emotially. and acts like he is dead toward me altogether. He allowes me to give him oral sex but when he is through he just say’s thank’s that was good and rolls over to go to sleep.I have reciently given up and am begining to accept the constant drug abuse. I even started to help him get drugs thinking it would bring us together again But he still stayes as far away from me as possible
