I know what you're saying is probably right, but it just seems like soo much to deal with to leave him, all togethor. I won't live like this anymore though, so if the counselling dosent work i'll take the step. atleast it'll give me a little more time to figure out the logistics, if nothing else.

There comes a point where you just have to put yourself. This is the time. This relationship is destroying you, and you know it. You shouldn't have to get over this, or accept it because he shouldn't be acting this way in the first place. His behaviour is appalling, and if you don't make a big change in your life NOW, you will wind up regretting it for the rest of your life. You need to be thinking of yourself and your two children here. This husband of yours isn't thinking of anyone else but himself. Clearly this relationship has been in trouble for a long time (he brings things up), and I think the time has come to make a break for it.
Get a lawyer, get away from this man. The time has come for you and your children to make a break for it and at least live with some stability.
