OP - If you are in Virginia, contact the Women's Center for some guidance on what your options are.  Therapy there is at a set, much reduced rate., and it appears that you have a lot of issues coming down on your at once. However, you might also need to contact a battered women's shelter to see about developing a safe plan/way to leave.  Be sure you do not use a phone where they would be calling you back and he might pick up or know of such calls.  If you need to look up things online do not use a shared computer either.

You also need to consult a lawyer to put a plan in place for a legal separation and ask about what visitation or custody might be under the circumstances you have described. You need therapy to deal with a lot of issues confronting you, and it is hard to tell if you "are stable" enough to remain with DH while you figure things out or not or if you should get out with DC now.  If he is as  violent as you indicate, would you be willing to fill out a protective order? Do you have any family or close friends you could confide in and go to as a "safe house" while things get sorted out.  You need to find at least one real professional to work with to sort things out and not just an anonymous board.[/quote]
