01020,

Glad to hear you've chosen to protect yourself. Your WH has gone way too far. You can't let him jeopardize the well-being of your children by nuking your finances. And he can make all the threats he wants about not supporting his family.

If your WH is really bipolar, do you anticipate a depression phase to manifest itself at some point?

And if your WH is indeed bipolar, there is really little you can do to improve any of this w/o him getting professional help. Marriage is hard enough with two mentally healthy people, but with one in poor mental health, it's extremely difficult.

While your WH is in poor mental health, I think you have to be extremely vigilant about protecting your kids (their emotional health).

I'm sorry to hear you're struggling. I would too, and I do in my own situation.
