The unworthy.

RE: The unworthy.
Since if you were a woman, we would all be outraged at the fact you were slapped, I will go ahead and be outraged on everyone else's behalf. Even if you had done drugs, a slap is unwarranted. No wonder you feel like shit. You were just treated like shit. I realize you love her, but shame on her. Feel better, LP.

RE: The unworthy.
You have my condolences and congratulations LP.

Addiction to the hard stuff truly takes a mastery of oneself to break away from and stay free.

Worry not too much about your wife's reaction - you're seeing irrational fear over a boogeyman. Facts are not in play here.

It will fade if you don't mention such and distract her with other things.

A lot of people do not like to be reminded of their fears. Paradoxically, they try to rev back into it.

Act as if it's a non issue and involve her in other, more engaging events. It'll disappear from memory soon enough.

That's the way to go. It sounds to me as if you took the right steps, so even if things didn't go as well as you'd hoped, in the long term you're much better off. Focus on the positive things you did (staying clean, being honest with your wife) and remember that the alternatives would have turned out worse.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
