How to suupport my addict husband?

Every 3 months he relapses, percs, oxy, etc. I am codependant but I want to see my husband recover. We love each other very much. I resent him right now and am angry. The norm. I want to heal myself but want to support him when I am again feeling stronger. I went on a codependancy site but basically they have all told me to take care of me and even to leave him, a few people said that and most say they have done so. I dont want to leave but I do know if life is insane i need to find a better place. Deep down my place is with him. I hope he recovers. I just really need an addicts point of view on supporting the addict as a codependant who is not in denial but is trying to keep the faith. Please help. Thank you.

How long has your husband been an addict? How many times has he relapsed? Does he have any type of aftercare in place..ie.....meetings,therapy?
