Hi,
My partner ( M 40 ) is having a lot off troubles at the moment. He has normally pills to help hin out SSRI medicine and also some for ADHD but that doos not do much in my opinion.
When he started the adhd ones I was hoping we found the problem. Cause he is more than 20 years looking for the right help.
Sometimes it is doable, sometimes good... But even with the pills he gets times that it is hurting him to be awake. Normal he also smokes weed to get a bit off the feelings gone.
Recently he started to drink (wodka/whiskey/rum) yust to be a bit relaxed. Specially when he is without his weed. About a half a bottle a day. Befor he was not a drinker and was always sober.
This week he got sick and everything that was a bit good seems to be forgotten. It was not a full week that he was what i would call resonanle. It is the 6th time he gets this deep in a few years. That can last weeks.
He feels incompetent / wast of space / bad example for our son ( 13 ) / negative to be with / should be gone out off our lives / has a cassandracomplex about the earth and society ( pollution, war with russia, monny...)
He can not enjoy his hobbies and wants to be dead.
We talk. I try to make him understand that he is worth a lot to me ( us ) but he sais I need to get me a real man.
I try to make him do thinks like walking just to be in the sun, move and see light that day but i cant force him.
I try to talk and make him see that he has a job, a house, us, family... but than he sais he doos love us and that is the reason he has to be gone. Than our life will get good.
I suggest massages but he feels i should not be bothered. I do. He is my partner.
I gave stupid tasks before to help him get doing something. Finishing something. Accompliching stuff. But no.
I m telling that his life did not turn happy after his father died ( when he was about the age off our son now ). That he wiched he could speek to him. Talk, ask questions... but those are wiches and not possible. Waste off time and emotions.
He almost can not cry but wendsday he did while talking about his dad and his hate for himself.
Last time it was bad I adked his mon to tell him more about his dad. He knows a lot about him but i wanted to get him to talk.
He is seeing a psychologist... Our next apointment is the first week off juli. Seems so far away now.
If one off you knows a thing i can do. Plx tell me.
This time I feel so powerless and useless to get him what he needsn
That was a good boy
