Husband threatens to leave all the time

I'm new to the site and would really like some advice! My husband and I have been together for 14 years (married for 4). Whenever we have a row he tells me that he doesn't think he wants to be married to me anymore, he's always done this throughout our relationship. We have a 13 year old son who hears him say these things all the time and he also sees me upset. I beg him not to leave but he just tells me to "f**k off because it's over' this goes on for days and is very stressful for me and my son. He says I'm a bitch, and I agree I can be difficult sometimes but nothing like he says I am! I really don't know what to do about this anymore.

Does he have bad mood swings ie up and down? It could be a symptom of depression or even bipolar. I know because I suffer with depression and my partner has bipolar. It may also be a symptom of insecurity or low self esteem and he sees your begging as reassurance that you still want him. I'm not making excuses for his behaviour I'm just thinking out the box.

So your son has seen this all his life?
It's him I feel sorry for.
Kick his arse out.
