Your husband might be displaying anger, but this is most likely the result of his true emotions: frustration and fear. He doesn't know what to do, and he is scared. He relies on you. He needs you. He loves you. He wants you and the life you have built together. He is afraid that you are going to take that all away from him.

Did you tell him what you needed from him? Did you tell him that you were frustrated and frightened and confused and worn out? Did you tell him that you want to live and that you love your life? Did you tell him that you were willing to work and do whatever is necessary to find a good place with him? Did you tell him that you need his help?

Communicate. Allay his fears. Tell him what you need from him. Ask him what he needs from you. Be partners in this.

I hope that some of this is helpful.

It is very likely that the reduction in dosage of Effexor is responsible for the worsening of your depression. What are your reasons for doing this?
