But why should he wait and why should you allow that when he's accusing you of BS crap such as abuse???

I think you're allowing him to get away with a lot, without repercussions and this allows the abuse to continue. He should be in therapy. I would insist on it, regardless of whatever small steps of progress he's made otherwise. You can be stronger than this. A workbook is not enough. He needs to take full ownership of his behavior and he's not being forced to. You giving into his needs just to keep the peace is enabling him.
