you need to get through this together .
he didnt tell u because he loves u and u havent left him as soon as you found out he was on drugs because u love him. There is a lot of love there and u can turn to each other for help. Thats how you cope.
why do u find it so hard to believe that he has quit? If he is having withdrawal symptoms he cant still be taking it can he?

But, take it from me, people can get better. I have been clean almost 2 years now, and no one ever thought that I could do it. Good luck. If he does relapse, just don't blame yourself. Addiction is very hard to get over. My wishes....
