My friend is thinking of leaving her husband. This is because her husband is a drug user. Although she says he's not yet that addicted to it yet, she said her husband is a different person when in drugs. He verbally abuses her. But recently, he finally hit her. This is the point where she thought she should him. She fears that this may only get worse and he may hit their son too. Should she leave her husband?

maybe she should talk to her husband first when he's not on drugs...tell him to seek medical help so his condition will be cured...if he does this and gets well, there won't be a reason for her leave him anymore...their life would be more harmonious...

According to your friend he's not an addict yet, so maybe she could tell her husband to stop taking drugs. If he doesn't then he is addicted to it already. She must try to get him to a rehab or at least see a doctor. Getting out of their marriage immediately isn't the solution to the problem. If this doesn't work and the situation becomes dangeous for her and her son then, that's the time to separate.

Try to get him to stop using drugs. Most often than not, people like this need people they love. She should be there for him and if he needs treatment encourage for him. So she should try to stay in the relationship for as long as she could.

She should tell him to stop. If he can't, then it's better to make him see somebody professional. This way his drug problem will be treated and the abuse can be stopped.

I think she better leave even temporarily, only until he gets treatment. This way there wouldn't be a risk of getting hit again. She should take her son with her. If the guy doesn't change, then she just have to leave him for good.
