I'm done, so what now?

I have reached the point in my marriage where I cannot continue any longer.

He is simply unable to share any of the parental burden, leaving everything to me.

We own a house together which is mortgaged up to the hilt. No savings. I have no income as I am a f/t carer to one of our children (in a medical sense - they are disabled) and f/t mum to both of our children.

He does none of the emotional labour, doesn't even know where to start. I have carried him for so long but I just don't have the energy any more. He will never change, I know this.

I don't know how to tell him I'm done.
Or what to suggest we do next.

Hiii ! I am not a full time career for my children but mine are 4,3 and 1 years old. This week I have also made the decision to leave . I get no help with the children and I also sort out his other 2 children on my own.
I am tired of trying to live up to his expectations of me.
I am done being told what to do. I pondered a few months ago if to leave but another incident later and I’m final! I think I’ll be happier alone.
I have today been doing my reasearch.
There is lots of help
Try calling citizens advice , your local council or there is a website called gingerbread with helpful advise on where to turn.
Keep your chin up. We are mums but we also need to think about our identity, I feel since I got married 2 years ago al my independence has been taken and my identity gone. Big hugs to you
