Hi there. My wife and I have been through periods that sound very similar to yours. Like you said, it started out fun, but after a while I noticed that we were just being basically mean to each other. We were careless with our words and we'd hurt each other badly. All under the influence or comedown of various opiates. We realized that if our marriage was going to last, or at least last without all the hurtful exchanges of words, that we were going to have to quit the opiates.
Let me tell you that your best asset in getting off this dope, in getting out of this life of opiates, is each other. You and your husband need to find a way to channel that energy wasted on negativity and fighting into a mutual, collaborative effort to support each other in kicking the opiates. Make a pact with each other if need be. Pull together as husband and wife, and as friends and fellow addicts. Use all that energy for helping pick each other up when one of you slip instead of kicking the other one when they're down. It's gonna be tough at first until you get the hang of it, b/c right now you're just used to fighting things out. Remember that dope is not worth your marriage. Plus you said something about having kids.
Since there are children involved, I would recommend getting professional help as soon as possible. Maybe one or both of you should go inpatient if you have somebody trustworthy to take care of your kids while youre gone. Also consider outpatient programs. Consider couples an individual therapy. Look into a Suboxone program in your town or neighboring city. Suboxone makes a world of difference. It levels the playing field against opiates.
