@rpg Have you developed an escape plan if it is needed [people to contact/place to go to]? If you are concerned for your physical safety, express that to your husband. The next time he becomes abusive, pick up your packed bag and leave. Immediately. Your safety has to come first. The things that @lisalucier mention are very valuable, and I hope that one of your husband's drs are able to refer him. If not, perhaps you know someone in your area who has had similar experiences and can give you a few names of professionals who helped them?

Thanks for the words of wisdom. Yes. I have had an escape plan for years. I keep essentials in my car and do leave when he starts.
Right now, I guess I am feeling lost because it takes so much to get to willingness to get help and I am unsure of how to have that help available. He sees Mayo not taking us as them agreeing with him that there is no problem.
