It is scary as hell just thinking of not having something to take, I know this. But you just gotta jump, just do it, take it one day at a time until it starts to get easy, until you do that nothing will change. I know what its like to be in the "closet" with it, my family and friends thought of me as a perfect angle! lol wow were they wrong, but you just deal with it, there going to love you no matter what happens. I felt they might lose respect for me too, and hell some of them might have, but im getting better everyday and really its just something in the rearview mirror now. My fiancée did the same thing with me, turning his head like nothing was going on, but he is my biggest supporter now he wants me to be happy and healthy and im sure your husband will feel the same way. The people that love you will always love you, hang in there everything will work out.
