[quote=Anonymous]OP, 1) You need to talk to a divorce lawyer and get a clearer sense of your options should you separate and/or divorce. 2) You need to get your ducks lined up financially and otherwise. 3) You need to give DH an ultimatum: “I love you but your depression and its consequences are hurting us both and I can’t keep doing this. If you can’t either find a full time job, any job, or else start pulling your weight with chores etc. by [date], we need to separate.” Don’t argue, don’t cajole. Just basic choice: he deals with your issues at least enough to take some of the burden off you, or you are separating. 4) Stick to it. If by whatever date you set he is neither working nor doing the bulk of the house and child care, separate.[/quote]
