I agree. don't know what state you are in but definitely get a lawyer. If you have financial issues affording a lawyer you may want to check with legal aid in your state. I can tell you for a fact that if you live in Tennessee - unless you have evidence that you are a physically abused spouse - not to bother. I don't know what kind of budget cuts legal aid has gone thru in other states.
I am going through a similar thing with my kids father. If I were you i would totally push for sole legal and physical custody and only supervised visitation for her. If you can prove that she is a meth head i think it should be a slam dunk. Dunno though.
Sadly I do not know much family law. What I know is mostly about Tennessee law. For instance: I can't file in MY county - i have to file 200 miles away in HIS county because that's how TN divorce code is written.
Good luck. If you want to talk or vent or whatever - feel free to PM me or complain in game to me. happy to listen.
