Am I making the right decision?

I’m sorry that you feel you even need to ask for strangers’ validation for this. Of course you are right to leave. I’m sorry you had children with this man. Please get out ASAP. Do you have support and a place to go? This will only escalate.

I was not as extreme as your husband, but had bad comms skills.

I went to a Doctor which diagnosed me with clinical depression, resulting in irritability.

The situation dramatically improved after medication.

I know separating is never easy, especially with kids, and understand your guilt, but I think greater guilt would come from raising children in an environment where they grow up to think it’s acceptable for your husband to treat you like he is or for you to tolerate it. Best of luck.

I agree. Hugs. You're doing the right thing.

Hell yes you are making the right decision. Don’t let a narcissist like him make you feel guilty, you will see even more clearly once you are completely out it it. I’ve been there!

OP here. Thank you all for providing reassurance. I’m moving forward, despite being fearful of the unknown. I really appreciate it.

I’m in the same boat and received the same advice. It’s hard and scary. In my case I was too scared to make a move and instead have sat for a year while he “changed”. He’s better than he was technically, but I can tell it’s just a new form of manipulative behavior. I’m trying to leave now. Hugs.

Leaving is the right call. Prepare yourself with an excellent lawyer, he will likely be a nightmare in the whole process.
