Hi "So tired" ~ What a nightmare you're living. I lived a nightmare like that for 26 years. I didn't leave him because I had 2 kids that I couldn't support on my own. I should have left him anyway because unfortunately, my kids had to hear his rantings all the time -- and it DOES effect the children. Believe me it does. But I was selfish and I was too scared that I couldn't support them.

Your husband is sick. He needs therapy. But it sounds like if you even SUGGESTED it, he would go into a ranting & raving episode that Lord only knows what would happen afterwards.

Do you have somewhere to go? Could you go to your parents or siblings home? Do you have friends that could put you up? Do YOU work? Do you think you could find a job? The way you're living now is going to effect your child in a negative way -- big time. I don't think you want your child living like this, and thinking that this is OK. I sure wouldn't. Otherwise your child is going to think that it's ok to call women horrible names and verbally abuse women all the time. Also, it's not going to be long before he PHYSICALLY abuses you -- wait and see. Actually i hope you DON'T wait and see -- I hope you're OUT of there soon!!!

Please think about it. This is no way to live -- you're being abused in case you haven't realized it yet. He needs help. Maybe if you left him, he might come to terms with his "illness." Who knows. But you need to get your child out of there.

God bless and please take care. Hugs, Lee
