would love some support

I am facing such a difficult time in my life and it’s bringing me down. I have been married to a man who has been using opiates following a back injury and more recently, benzodiazepines for the past 7 years. The mood swings are so intense and erratic. I keep busy and try and stay away, and he won’t get therapy. There is no regard for me and it’s taking a toll on my mental health. And I think he’s a narcissist from things I’ve read- he checks many of the boxes. Has anyone else ever been in my shoes? And how did you handle it?
