Hi NJ
I am so sorry that you are having a very stressful and scary time dealing with your husbands drink and drugs problems.
Sadly there are no magic answers and the people who have been contacting you have nothing to do with Adfam!
However there are people who can help you. I work for a charity called Icarus Trust. We have trained volunteers who are experienced in supporting people dealing with addiction in their families. They would be able to listen and talk to you as it often helps to offload to someone who understands how you are feeling. They will also tell you what other help could be available.
This is a FREE service so it might be worth giving it a try.
You can contact us on help@icarustrust.org or visit the website http://www.icarustrust.org
I hope this helps you find some good advice and support. Good luck.
