Dear Guest_4218~
Welcome here to the Forum, I'm sorry you find yourself in this situation, and as you say it is very worrying -for many reasons.
I would think that losing a job under very adverse circumstances can be a huge blow to a person. So much of one's self-image, purpose in life, social standing and other things too are all bound up in one's employment. To loose it all may well be something some people simply can't cope with and anything, be it gambling, porn or anger can be a distraction and means of dealing with things. Not good ones obviously.
From the sound of it your husband needs professional support and the first thing of course is for him to see his behavior is harmful to all, himself included. Do you think you could persuade him to seek help?
If you think there might be someone else who would stand a better chance of doing this, his family or freinds, then perhaps you could enlist their aid.
You yourself too need support at the moment, you are going though a horrible and stressful period, with an awful lot of worry. Can I suggest that you too seek professional help, perhaps by visiting your GP. Not only can your own health be monitored but there could be information about support groups for gambling and the rest.
Do you have family or friends to care and help you? Dealing with all this in isolation would be very hard.
