I hate him. i hate what he has become a nasty, angry arsehole of a man.
I didnt get married to become a wife of a complete dickhead.

My DP suffers with anxiety and depression. The mood swings are horrific and I feel like I am refereeing between him and teenage DS. I feel for you Gre 8

Why do u stay

Sometimes I.am.not sure. He can be great company but more recently the bad days outweigh the good. The doctor keeps saying he is at a high risk of suicide ( just his age I think) and that I.must watch him.and stay in contact so I feel I cannot walk out .

Welcome this realisation. There's life after leaving an arsehole Brew

It is a shit storm but peace follows it.

Suicide?! You are not obliged to sacrifice your one and only life to -maybe - dissuade somebody else from their decision to commit suicide.

Gre8scott · 09/09/2017 21:22

What i dont understand is how i leave he is ill and needs help he would be dead by now if i hadnt stayed. If he had cancer and his moods where bad people wouldnt except me to leave but cos its mental health i should just leave?

No one expects anything, people are just saying what they would do or have done.

If a man is abusive, I think you leave, whether he has MH problems or cancer. He needs to earn loyalty.

Whosthemummynow · 10/09/2017 08:46

Alot of info is missing, is he trying to get help? How long has he been suffering with MH?
No one would blame you If you left. People with MH issues are often very selfish, in the way that they don't realise how their behaviour can affect those closest to them, they are so wrapped up in what they are feeling.

I feel for you OP, I really do. I grew up in a house where my father had severe depression and anxiety. It was very hard, and has affected my life & relationships I have formed. Flowers

If he needs help could his family and friends provide it ? Doesn't have to be you

Gre8scott · 10/09/2017 11:09

In my personal opinion and experience my dh has got osa and because he don't get a lot of sleep at night he wakes up moody and grumpy and sometimes quite abusive but I wouldn't leave him I married him knowing his condition and the effect it can have on him and partners I wouldn't leave him over something he can't help it's not hos choice to be like this but as I have told him I would only leave him if he indangered our children as a mother I have a duty of care to them and he knows they come first hope this helps xx

Have you tried talking to him about it?
