Use the time away to clear your heaand take a good look at things.
I am not saying things can't work if she cleans up either. A good friend of mine went through the same thing with his wife except she wrecked her car high and drunk win the kids in it. That was he last straw. He got a divorce and was painted as the bad guy for not sticking with her although he already had dealt with it for YEARS. He took custody of the kids in the divorce and she went to jail and rehab. About a year later she was in the picture again clean and sober. They are living together again and everything is great. She wont even go near pills even when they are prescribed. They have not gotten remarried again yet though, but they plan to. In his case though, there was more at stake with the kids.
You have the chance now to just get out if you want to. Think about some of the stuff I mentioned and see if you want to shoulder what is ahead for you with her. THEN see if she HONESTLY wants to make it work.
