That's an awful situation!
I think there has been some great advice given and you have made a wise decision.
Getting counselling and help from professionals, working on yourself and your marriage is the best thing you can do. Then re-evaluate in 6mths and 12 mths.

Keep a diary of abusive behaviour. It may help you both later. You to be free of the behaviour and for him to get help for it.

Sounds like he has a few issues he needs to sort out too.

Best of luck
