My partner seams very depressed lately, he works full time and he was working with his cousin delivering parcels, his cousin just left so now my partner is on his own and struggling with the amount of heavy parcels on his own, he plans to leave soon and go on the sick while he awaits surgery on his leg which could be anytime now. He hasn’t seen his children from his previous marriage since February as he wasn’t able to during the lockdown and him working full time, when he did try and see them his ex wife didn’t turn up. He plans on taking it back to court. He’s told me he wants to move house and he hates this house. He wants us to get rid of one of our cars and change it for a different car that he likes as I chose it 2 years ago and he no longer likes it but I use his to do school runs and shopping while he’s working daily and he uses mine to get to work and home. His is bigger and more practical for me so it works better that way. He’s told me he’s so sad and depressed and he’s completely pushing me away being so moody with me and doesn’t stop complaining when he’s home, the kids are crying, the dog left hair on the bed or In the car, one of the kids left a crisp packet in the car so now the car is being treat with no respect, he’s not happy with anything at all and it’s getting to me! I try so hard, I make his meals for him I do the shopping I wash his clothes and have them all ready for him, I offer to make him lunch to take to work but he doesn’t want it. But the moods from the second he wakes up is really getting to me. He’s also on blood thinners as he has a faulty gene which makes his blood clot, he’s had two unprovoked blood clots in his lung and he’s lucky to be alive so he’s on blood thinning injections daily for the rest of his life and he’s refusing to take them for 2 days and saying something bad might happen to him and I won’t have to put up with him. Iv never let him know he’s bothering me I just support him as best as I can and try to help him through what ever he’s going through but becoming so hard for me too
