I'm sorry to hear this. I can only imagine how hard it must be to make that decision. I would like to tell you to hang in there just a bit longer, but even myself, I don't always know if I want to stay with all this.
What ever decision you make, you can know you made every effort to make it work.

I'm sorry you're going through this. I was married almost 20 years to my first husband and I know how difficult it is to unwind yourself from such a long term relationship.
However, once I did, it was tremendously freeing and I really enjoyed being without the drama and craziness.
So what did I do a few years later? I married another one with BPD, though this one is financially responsible and is a much nicer person and far more functional.
Good luck. Things will get better.
