My partner is suffering. He's had a breakdown and is struggling to talk about it. He's getting confused/irritable/upset. Last work he cried and shook. I had to go to work today and I kept ringing him because he was looking after our son and I wanted to know they were both safe. My OH got mad because I kept ringing and I said I wanted to know they were both safe. Next thing I know my son is at my mother in laws for the (at least) next two nights. My OH is devestated but my MIL and apparently me have convinced him it's for the best. I didn't want this. I'm sat on the doorstep of the house we bought when we got pregnant, decorated for the arrival of our son, we were so ready for our life together and I'm just wondering how it''s come to this. I struggle with MH (not to the same extent) and I'm struggling too. My OH has asked for me not to speak to my friends/family about it cause they don't want him to know, he's asked I speak to my MIL and as much as I adore her I don't want to. I want to tell my mum and cry and be upset but I can't be. I try and talk to OH but he just bottles up and can't talk about it. I just want him to hold me and tell me it's okay but it's not in his capacity right now. I don't know what to do.
