Financial abuse and depleting mental health


21-Apr-2023 (In Divorce Law)
My husband and I have been married for 8 years. We have 2 dogs together.I work in a small company and earn less than 1/10th of his salary. He works in a big corporate and earns around 50 lakhs per annum.He doesn’t pay any of my bills except for our house rent and doesn’t provide for dogs either.I buy most of the groceries and end up spending every penny within 10 days of pay day.Whenever I ask him for money, he straightaway says that he doesn’t have money.Last month we went on an international trip and he made me pay for all the stays and some more bills which I did from my credit card.Now I am stuck, paying the bills.I am suffering a lot of mental issues like anxiety and depression.I already do 1 job, 2 freelancing jobs and I paint and crochet on order, to make the ends meet.From past week, our dogs have very less food left and I can’t buy a new packet any day soon.I am feeding them boiled eggs and carrots which is not nutritious. My husband knows this but wont hlp

Put a maintenance case against him. If you want to file divorce case against him then you can do that on basis of mental and psychological harassment. Don't quit the home you are living in. If you want then you can file domestic violence matter against him

Dear Queriest, if you are facing such issues of not getting the same social and standard life of how your husband is living since he is just ignoring you, maintaining you and your two dogs with the other household expenses, then you can file Maintenance under section 124 CrPc. In which you can claim maintenance for yourself to meet your daily needs and expenses. for more information about the same kindly call me.
