Wait 24 hours. Let your husband know how low you're feeling. Let him be there for you.

If you have family and friends you are in touch with, let them know you are struggling. I don't know how old you are, but if you're a senior, maybe there is a senior center where you are, and they could tell them what's going on with you. Hoping for a change for the better.
