Hi Kristen. Sorry to hear you're having such a rough time. Lot's of great people here to support you. You say your husband is not taking his meds or seeking any treatment. If that's the case, things just aren't going to get better on their own, he needs to realize there is a problem and get the help he needs to change it. You CAN'T do it for him! He has assulted you in the past, and is now becoming verbally and emotionally abusive. Do you feel he is a threat to assult you again? If so, you need to distance yourself and the children from him. I think you need to focus on what is best for you and your children. No one can tell you when you've had enough, only you will know. The last thing any parent wants to do is put their children thru the seperation or divorce of their parents, but sometimes it is the best alternative. Maybe if you do seperate he will get his act together again, and then you can decide if you have the trust and love to reconsile. These are all VERY difficult decisions to make, I know. My wonderful wife became manic after 20 years of being basically stable. She fled, spent, cheated and wanted divorce, but after a number of hospitalizations and medication trials, she is stable, home and our relationship has returned. Sometimes it can work out and sometimes it can't. Only time will tell. Let us know how things are going in the coming days. Paul
