I'm really sorry that you have to go through this and it sounds so much what I had to deal with my alcoholic (ex)husband for 8 years...

At the point where I coudn't handle it anymore I went to ALANON and learned 3 important things:

1. I was an enabler
2. You teach people how to treat you
3. find out what the reward is you are getting out of 'helping' the addict

I know that sounds harsh and it hurts a lot to learn this lesson but I finally was able to get out of this vicious circle and my own life back on track.

We all are praying for you and your family!
