Your situation is difficult and much too complicated to fully flush out in an online message board. You have the option of filing for divorce and getting a kick out order and perhaps that would be best to protect your children from the cocaine. There then is the issue of spousal support, because he may request that you help support him while he gets on his feet again. If you are paying all the bills and the only one working, you may be in that position. So you may need to discuss this with a local attorney to see what your options may be and how to best structure your escape from this bad marriage.
For self represented individuals you can consult with the family law facilitator self help center at your local court house.
As always please consult a local attorney prior to taking legal action. Good luck. Also please check out my Santa Clara County Family Lawyer blog.
