My bad marriage
My husband is very verbally abusive. He also will not help me with money. I lost my job a year ago and I still pay everything and he will not help. If I leave can I get finacial help through the state or county.

I am so sorry for what your husband is putting you through. You do not deserve to be treated this way. You are a human being with feelings that deserves the upmost respect. Any real man would treat you as a queen. Please no that anything less is not worth your time. You are clearly a strong woman, able to hold it down on your own and I am so glad you are taking steps to improve your situation and find the happiness you deserve.
Depending on your income you may be eligible for state assistance such as Food Stamps and medicaid. However, if you are working you will not be approved for any cash assistance. You may also be approved for low income housing depending again on your income. If you do not have children chances are you will not get ANY help.
How long have you been married? In many situations if you get a divorce you can receive alimony assuming you can prove that your husband was the main financial provider. When getting your divorce it is imparative that you show that your husband makes more than you and that you are used to a certain lifestyle. If you have any savings I would suggest pulling it out of any financial institution (bank) and keep the money in a safe place just until everything is all said and done. When appying for state assistance they will ask if you have any savings. Lets say you just filed your taxes and you get back a couple thousand well that will hurt you when figuring up your financial need.
Do you have children? If so you are in a whole other playing field one in which will most likily be very benificial to you. If you would like to send me back any additional information I will send you a step by step plan of what you need to do, how, and when.

I am sorry that you are having a hard time with your marriage, but yes if you leave and you have no job or income or even if you have income but not much of it the state will help you... you can go to your local welfare office and apply for foodstamps, also ask for information on cash assistance and low income housing and hud good luck and I wish you all the best
