I can see how your situation would be very frightening and overwhelming. But if you truly have the will to leave your husband, there is a way. If I were in your position, the first thing I would do is consult with an attorney. If you can't afford one, you might check to see if you have a legal aid service or pro bono attorneys in your area. Talk to the lawyer, ask his advice. I'm sure he could help you figure out how to retain medical coverage and perhaps even an alimony settlement.

The usual response of a narcissistic husband is to not want his wife to leave - because he can't imagine the thought or image in his head of any other guy being intimate with her, in any way. It is a big problem, on his part. Your task is to ask the quesiton, "Am I better off with him or without him?". The answer to this question should drive your actions (rather than any guilt feelings you may have about what your husband is left to deal with).
