Either way you need some help. He needs to be able to look for work and help w/the house and kids because the stress of doing it all while he does nothing will wear you down and then where will your family be if you can't function anymore. Time for a heart to heart w/DH and a dr. visit. I know it's hard but you can't give up.
I know today I am at my cousin's house while he is at home. I told him I needed to just get away. I can't do it today. I am letting him handle all of it. He can figure out what to cook every other thing that needs to be done around the house. I handed him the bills and said you figure out how to pay what needs to be paid cause the $200 in the bank account won't cover everything. Told hime if the power gets turned off OH WELL I have done all I can do at this point. Short of robbing a bank (which is NEVER and option). I will get up and go to work and I will come home to do my school work I will make sure I have food but as for him he is on his OWN. He siad stop mothering me well I will. NO MORE DOING HIS LAUNDRY NO MORE COOKING HIS DINNER NO MORE DOING ANYTHING HE NEEDS DONE. IF I NEED TO I WILL MOVE IN WITH MY GRANDMOTHER OR COUSIN TO GET MY POINT ACCROSS. I HAVE HAD IT. HE IS GOING TO PUT UP OR GET OUT

Do you have a home church, or even just a local one you would feel comfortable going into & asking questions. Sometimes they may know someone who just needs some help running errands, and your DH can get paid to do that. It won't pay much, but it could get him up & out of the house, and bring in a few extra dollars per month too.
While he's looking, he can also check out American Greetings to see if they have any merchandiser positions available in your area. Once again, not great money but very flexible hours (you pick your schedule, you just have to get the work done), which means he can go looking whenever anything pops up.
There is the occasional job out there, but fewer companies are advertising, you just have to go out & find them yourself.
I know what it is to struggle, DH lost his job about 6 1/2 yrs ago, could not find anything for almost 9 months, then took a job making about 1/3 of his previous salary.
Things are finally better for us financially, and we are starting to dig ourselves out of the hole we were in.
I will continue to lift you & your family up in my prayers.

So I came home his morning (stayed the night at my cousin's house) and he seemed to have been pretty convinced I was never coming back. He had to cook his own dinner (oh and there were no clean dishes cause I am on strike so he had to wash in order to cook). He doesn't have a car cause his truck broke and he won't get out there and try to fix it so he was stuck in the house ALONE all day and night. He did clean the living room, wash a load of clothes, do some dishes, and clean our bedroom. I guess when there is nothing else to do cause the converter box on teh TV went out and I took the internet with me je will find things to do HUH. We will see how the next week goes. I told him that he is going to act like a child he gets treated like one. Everyday he has a chore list and they have to be done or there will be consiquences.
As for the job thing he did walk to the store and get a paper and apply at the gas station. so we will see where that goes!
