[quote=Anonymous]OP, I have been in your shoes and am now on the way to divorce after my spouse's multiple rehabs and an inability to stay sober. You need to start building a support system. Some Al Anon meetings have childcare, but if not, you can bring your baby to a meeting. You will meet people there who have been in your shoes and can help you. Also, start individual therapy. Babette Wise at Georgetown specializes in this issue and takes insurance. Please don't keep the secret to yourself, it is too much to handle on your own and the shame will keep you stuck. If there are any trustworthy people in your life, reach out to them and let them know what's going on. Finally, you need to get a lawyer and figure out what you need to document in order to ensure your child's safety and keep sole custody until your husband is able to demonstrate consistent sobriety. You will get through this.[/quote]
