I meet my husband six yrs ago and been married for about 15 months. At that time he was getting out of jail for drug problems. He was doing drugs and drinking. I went through alot of voliet times with him. We would actually physical wrestle on the group, yell scream push each other. My husband is a very verbal abusive. He says things to me to really upset me. The last year in Feb he stoped for 6 months and then he went back. He is now starting to do illegal stuff right now. Yesterday I took his key because I don't want it taken and I don't want to make that easy to do his stuff. Let them come to him or he find away to get there. So that means he is still going to do it and it is going to take alot longer but I am going to try and stay strong an not get upset when he takes off. I am going to try and not think about him all the time, because that is what makes me cry.
