 It sounds like you are being mentally and verbally battered by your husband.
Call Freephone 24 Hour National Domestic Violence Helpline 0808-2000-247 to get some help or to just talk.

 Hi there,
I am in the Uk as well. I really havent been to indian or turkey but i have some friends and u have a really nice culture. It is always difficult to adjust coming from a different part of the world.It seems to me that u really miss home alot, dont worry just give it time the Uk is a really wonderful place to be.
I feel your husband should be a little more understanding/patient with u.But notwithstanding my only understanding of this is that I think he wants u to keep yourself busy/occupied. In a way this will help u overcome homesickness and adjust quicker. Explain to him how difficult it is getting a job and show him u in everyway that u can that are making an effort to do so.Also, try to look around and see the beauty of the environment u find yourself in. If u can search for anything that can remind you of home, perhaps a turkish/indian restaurant or make friends aroundAlot of countries have huge societies in the Uk perhaps you can find out about yours and how people there can help u get settled in.
Take care dearie and goodluck. Kelly
