I've been trying to write this post for a while but I don't know how.

In a nutshell I've managed well through lock down but it's now got to the stage where I can't cope.

I work from home so it now feels like I'm living in my office. My partner is on furlough and it's unlikely he will have a job to go back to. He is a self harmer and doesn't like to go outside.

I tried to ask him to come out for a coffee with me yesterday but he didn't want to go. I just went out on my own and tried to pass the time before I had to go home.

He just plays computer games all day.

I can't believe my life is like this now. I didn't even know life could be this bad which is why I wasn't able to stop it happening.

I’m sorry things are hard, OP. It must be hard trying to support your partner when you feel so low yourself. Are you both getting support?

Thank you for responding. My partner has just recently completed therapy. Last time I spoke with my doctor they told me to speak to my employer.
