How do I leave my alcoholic husband?

Ladies I'm looking to hear some of your experiences with divorce. Especially those who have had a mortgage. Please share your story to help a sister struggling to get the confidence to leave a 12 year marriage to an alcoholic.

I love the man he is when he's sober, but I very rarely see that man anymore and I hate the drunk side of him. I don't want our kids to think this is normal and he flat out refuses to stop drinking or even cut down so I feel like divorce is my only option, but I'm soo so scared I won't be able to afford to live on my own. I've looked up rent prices and they're all about $400 and I only make $650 a week. How can I survive on this?

Please ladies share your story. Offer me some advice. I need all the help
I can get right now. I'm So sick of crying myself to sleep every night.

Single Mum here, i pay $395 in rent currently and have in the past paid $420. I have a car loan too. You will should be entitled to FTB and also PPS and rent assistance, which makes this all affordable. Get out, wishing you all the best!
