We went before there was problem with cheating just with drug use and lying. It didn't help and I just started taking something so I wouldn't get depressed.

Well, it exposed the issues. And instead of my husband seeking reconciliation, he hardened his heart. It was painful. I stayed committed to counseling for over a year. And God used my counselors as help when I needed them during the court custody hearings. It came at a cost to me, but God knew I would need them in this way . . . it also helped bring clarity to my own life, the choices I had made . . . and the gravity of issues I needed to face.
Working / Worked
My husband was lying and did not want it to work.
Working / Worked
can't do couples council until he goes through anger management... went through couples council earlier and the result was that he needed to deal with his anger first so we split and did individual counseling.
