Re: Dont know where to start

Ditto to what focused said. Getting legally separated but still living under the same roof is just a piece of paper. It will do nothing to alleviate the tension; it may even escalate it. Consider that right now you are both possibly doing things positive for each other because you are married. If a legal separation is put into place the incentive to be somewhat agreeable can go out the window.
I would have to suggest that the two of you try counseling before looking at divorce. Its more than possible he is not adjusting well to the loss of your income and an increased reliance on him by you due to the injury. With the history you've got between you, going to counseling first can't hurt. If it doesn't work, then you at least will have a clearer understanding of him and know for sure that divorce is the only option.
Starting down the road to dissolving the marriage, without exploring other options first, especially when you have no income and health issues, is not usually a wise move. See if you can fix it first before opening that whole other can of worms.
