I don't even know where to start. I'm just done. I'm so broken inside but I have to be strong for my children and my work. If I show emotion then I'm guilting my husband.
He is suffering with his mental health and has for many years and I don't know how much more I can take. I've been supportive and stayed with him despite his temper and him taking everything out on me. I dont help him he says but what can i do? I never know what I'm coming home to each day, what mood is he going to be in? Will he shout insults at me? Will he criticise my parenting or housework? Will he tell me I'm not supportive? I work a full on full time job so he can work part time but that isn't good enough. I'm either home too late or working too much. Nothing I do is right. He can't see the way he is going and I have no fight left in me, I just get called every name under the sun in an argument then blamed for making him mad enough to call me names. I have to see the councillor at work it's that bad. I can't leave. We have children, a mortgage, a house and I would be financially ruined if I left or so he says. Do I hope he gets out of this round of mental health problem.

How would you be financially ruined? You're the one working full time.

Do you have equity? Can you get a mortgage on your own? Do you have family who can support you?

He's abusive and controlling and this is not good for your children. They won't thank you as adults for staying with him and letting them live in the same fear.
