We’re having financial troubles at the moment. He’s been in a state of extreme anxiety and agitation for over a week.

I don’t know what to do. I’m pregnant and we have a 3yo.

Someone with information about MH support will be along soon, just bumping to keep this in active and let you know people are reading/listening.

Are you receiving any support with the financial problems? There are charities that can help.

Sorry op it's really hard

Has he seen a GP? Are you in debt? If so, have you spoken to a debt counsellor?

Second GP and debt counsellor

Yeah get Into Gp ASAP.

Mine has been fantastic and will book me a double appointment if I need to speak.

I’ve now been referred to a psychiatrist which I only had to wait 2 weeks for her but also I can get emergency help if I need it.

There are so many opportunities that you haven't looked into just yet. There are probably many solutions available to your financial problems, though we don't know what it is exactly since you haven't mentioned any details. It could involve selling the house or car, or taking up another job or even another profession. It could involve retraining to something more lucrative or giving up on a life dream of running your own business which didn't turn out as promising as one thought in the outset. We don't know. But in all likelihood it doesn't involve any action as drastic as the one you mention.

Will he speak to a GP, OP?

Martin Lewis (money saving expert) says he has never came across a debt situation that isn't solvable. You need to speak to creditors or debt charity and they will help.

Of course your dh needs help from gp, but the sooner the debt problem is being solved the better as it must be a big pressure. Flowers

....sorry just realised you didn't say debt. If so ignore above.
