Ds confided in me that he thought of slitting his wrists the other day. I knew he was down as he has split with gf but I never knew he felt so bad. He had seen GP a few days previously who has referred him for counselling but the assessment isn't for a month. I have urged him to go back to GP for medication which he has promised me he will.
I am so scared, he doesn't actually appear very depressed although I believe he is. He still goes to work every day, he's still smiling although possibly quieter than normal although hard to tell as he is out at work a lot. He's lost interest in his possessions, spends a lot of time just staring into space and his eyes are dead.
I'm finding it hard when he is out of sight. If he is late home then I am so anxious. I feel like I am losing him and I don't know what to do.
GP isn't open until Tuesday but he has Mondays off so probably won't make it to the GP for another ten days.
Dh thinks it's because of the break up and he'll get over it but ds said he felt like it long before then and they broke up because he couldn't cope with gf feeling like he does.
Please advise.
