Boyfriend is on self-destruct- what can I do?!
Question:
Boyfriend is on self-destruct- what can I do?
I am at the end of my rope. My boyfriend has suffered from depression for about 18 months. He lost his home and job in the space of a week and things have gone downhill ever since. He has been unable to find a job despite trying and is deep in debt. He often has to ask me for money which really hurts him as I am a student worknig 10 hours a week. I think hes on serious self-destruct mode. He recently threatened someone in a bar and loses his temper with me really easily. I am trying everything I can to help him but he seems to be falling down a spiralling hole.
He went to the pub tonight telling me he'd be home by 9pm. I finally got through to him 10 minutes ago and he is with 2 strangers in a house, saying he 'has a death wish'.
This is so hard, I feel I'm watching the man I love fall apart in front of me. Even worse, I have no one to talk too. He is older than me so my parents disapprove, making him a forbidden subject. What can I do to help him?
