The lying goes hand in hand with drug and alcohol abuse, and I just want to say that none of these things are your fault, the choices that were made were made exclusively by him so you should feel no guilt or shame.
I know these situations are draining and emotionally exhausting, especially with 3 kids...BUT that is who you have to do this for. You can't live in an environment where you are trying to teach your kids good habits while they are watching their father abuse drugs and alcohol with seemingly no consequences. You have to show your kids that there are consequences and scare the bloody hell out of them so they aren't encouraged by their fathers habits.
Once you make up your mind you WILL see the light at the end of the tunnel
I wish you all the very best with the attorney and your tests, and I wish for a pleasant future for your children
