Hello worried,
Your husband needs to get help immediately.
Try to find a clinic in your area that offers mental health services on a "sliding fee" scale that charges a fee for its services based on your income level.
He will possibly need some kind of medication so the sooner he gets it, the better the outcome will be.

Those are typical symptoms of of at least a mild form of schizophrenia. I would think that there should be some form of help available for your husband that you could find from this web site or from a pastor or a hospital.
I hope the best for the both of you. It might seem bad right now but there is always hope.

I used meth when I was a teenager. It caused me a great deal of mental problems.
Check around your community to see if there's a clinic that will help. Your husband needs help and the longer it takes to get it, the longer the recovery will be.
Seek assistance.
