Question
QUESTION: I do not know what to do anymore. I am married to a crak user for ten years now. He isn't the man I fell in love with 13 years ago. Financially we are almost broke. We are having our own business, and he uses twice a week, which is a very big amount of money. I know I should leave him, but my youngest son(10years),doesn't want to be away from his das. Even though, he doesn't want to have anything to do with his dad, when he has his "stupid face". I am not in love with this man anymore, but I do not what to do. I have no family here in the USA. All my friends stay away from me, because the do not want to have anything to do with my husband. Any advice for me what to do, e.g are there programms to pay for housing etc? I live in Indiana.
Please help me if you can, because I am trapped. Thank you so much.

Answer
not sure i understand that..anyone can move from here to another country...otherwise, call the dept of social services in your city/town...then the housing authority...there's a section 8 program that may pay for most rental expenses; you can ask social services about food stamps and whatever else is available..
