Is he a company driver? Many firms have family assistance programs for their employees. O/o and indy would be something else.
Do you have a family doctor, pastor, trusted friend? Does your hubby have driver friends that he trusts?
You didn't mention where he drives, what he drives, what kind of loads, how long he's out, possible company problems, issues extrinsic to driving (finances, health, family...) nor your own situation. All these factors will make a difference in a good outcome for you both.
I certainly have no intention of making this harder for you, but it is a two-way street. Finding someone who can help him is only half the solution. You need to find counseling, too. I would suggest a professional because the kind of life we lead is totally different from what many people understand.
It isn't easy for drivers nor those left at home and it isn't for everyone, by any means.
Hope the others chime in with some words of wisdom, too.
We'll help as much as we can although, to be honest, there is little we can do but give you some support. Don't be disheartened, start looking for someone to talk to today.
Keep us up on what's going on, please?

I know it doesn't help with him being out on the road, he is doing his job, meanwhile you are left at home to brew. Like the other has asked, how long does he go out for?

My advise is to have him get a couple of days off so that you two can get some communication going and it is too hard with him being gone. You both need to sit down with each other and get your feelings out on the table so that you can start working on them.

If he is an otr driver maybe he could look for something regional that would keep him closer to home while you are trying to reconnect.

Please keep us posted.
