Maybe you should think about moving. I bet when he was physically abusive you did not call the police, so although you may get able to document the abuse, it will be more difficult. You can get a temporary protective order... Drinking, smoking, and chewing are going to be pretty much irrelevant. You really need an attorney
The situation you describe will not get better without the assistance of the courts. Please meet with an experienced family law attorney to explore your legal options.
