me and my husband have been married for 12 years. We both are addicts. I have been off dope but on methadone from a clinic for last 6 years. He used to go also but quit methadone cold turkey when he went to jail but is now back at it but injecting it and buying off steets. We have been living in separate homes for last few months cuz we were starting to hate each other. But I miss him and want this to work. What do I do?
