AIBU to ask for your support. I have no one else

My husband is horrible. Coercive. Abusive. Awful to my kids. I’ve had enough. There are huge huge mental health issues with him. But I’m done.

I have to just get through theee next few days possibly weeks with him.

I want to eventually force him out. Me staying here with kids. Then get an order in place so I can have the family car and he pay the mortgage till girls are 18 etc.

Harsh you might think? Not if you knew the half of what I’ve had to endure.

So pls, advice, tips, whatever you can offer because I’m absolutely shitting myself.

What made you come to this discision?

I think if you’re unhappy and your marriage is making you depressed it’s not worth your health or life.

Please talk to some of the organisations that understand about these issues. You will need help and advice

Hugs. Get important documents safe, get copies of financial information. Someone will be along soon that can give more advice than that I'm sure.

What made me come to this decision? Years and years of abuse. Name calling. Blame. Strange behaviour. No patience. Anger.

All my fault of course. Because I wind him up. Or he didn’t actually call me a name I must have imagined it. Or he was only joking.

Angry because I didn’t do ‘A.’ Then when I did it was anger because of ‘B.’

Just always an excuse to me angry. But never his fault always someone else’s. Usually mine.
