Should I get a divorce?
Question by Ghena Hammond: Should I get a divorce?
My husband and I have been in a relationship for 12 years before deciding to get pregnant. and now its been 3 years since we got pregnant. He’s always been a loving and caring husband. and I always thought that he must be role model for other husbands. unfortunately I found out that somewhere along the line he started using drugs (Heroin) I tried helping him to get out of that mess and he did. He stayed sober for almost 2 months before he relapsed again. then sobered and relapsed. Then again he sobered up for 6 months. an lately I found out that he relapsed for the 4th time in less than a year. I confronted him and he confessed. Now I think that I cant be of help to him and that I should get professional help. I went to see a phsycologist first who told me that my husband has to be admited to a rehab center outside our home country. I searched for really good rehab centers in Erope and decided on one. When I went back to my husband asking him to admit himself to a rehab he refused and said that he can stop his addiction by himself and he will prove it to me. and all he did is that he proved the total opposite. He finally agreed to getting a professional help but not anywhere outside our home country and not a rehab. I really dont know if that would work?
My husband never used drugs before marriage and I know that for sure. I dont know why (and even he doesnt know why) he started taking drugs after marriage? i’m now loosing hope in him and think that maybe I should get a divorce? but if I do then I know for sure that his situation will worsen dramatically! what should I do??? is there still hope in him?

How he does it is of irrelevance – its the fact that he does it, if hes not willing to go to rehab then I would seriously consider getting a divorce and not procreating with him –
