hi irishgirl4, there has been a lot of good advice here, I hope that you'll use what will help. My husband was emotionally abusive, too and once I learned not to buy into it, it's definitely better.

There is no happiness...no hope...no excitement. I cannot find joy in my life (despite having four healthy kids ages 10, 6, 5, 4).

I know this is an awful feeling...
happiness is a tough one, hope? - you're reaching out for help, that's hope. Excitement? I guess it depends on your definition of excitement.
Joy...you may not feel it now, but you will see that joy will come from four little smiles that are waiting for you when you walk out of the dark place. Don't give up.
