[quote=Anonymous]Trying to get some feedback on how to navigate this situation. We’ve been married for 13 years, have two kids under ten. Husband is a workaholic and verbally/mentally abusive towards me since then beginning. I didn’t know what I was dealing with and kept going to marriage counseling and trying to work on things, but he is very slow to make progress and whatever progress he makes  usually gets thrown back in my face (“look how much I’ve changed for you”). At this point, I’m done with the marriage because I don’t see us growing old together, divorce is inevitable, but he is begging for another chance. I gave him time to get his act together earlier in the year, but he has gone back to his old controlling and gaslighting ways and I can’t take anymore. He’s telling me he will not divorce me and will fight it with all his energy and resources because he thinks I’m being unreasonable and the kids will be “destroyed” by this decision. 
Has anyone else been in a similar situation? How did you survive? I am already barely keeping my head above water, a long drawn out divorce will destroy me, but staying is not an option because it will literally kill me. [/quote]
