This is what I wanted

Mental Health/Depression/Loneliness

I told my husband I was done almost 3 weeks ago . He had a pattern of not listening to my feelings when I said I was unhappy and asked for change then blaming me and also threatening me that he would take his life if I left him and I decided I could no longer live like this. I pay the mortgage and all the bills on the house as he hasn’t worked in three years and only the past week has he been granted disability payments . I have left the house and my pets to stay with my parents because he said he would be living in his car if I kicked him out and he also has a son who he has 50/50 shared custody with his ex partner .

Now I am incredibly depressed , I’m sleeping on a futon at my parent’s house . I miss my dog who is my baby and I am dreading having to ask him to leave the house . I’m waiting on a phone call from a solicitor today to see where I stand legally before speaking to him , but I just want my home back .
