He wants to break up, rather than get help as he feels like he will never change, never get better. This is a kick in the teeth to me and I feel lost and helpless.

The more I read about this, the more it sounds like a substance abuse issue. Can you get your boyfriend to at least entertain the idea of AA? If not, then look for a rational recovery group in your area. A dear friend of mine (now deceased of natural causes) was not a fan of AA; he found an SOS (save our selves) group, and that got him on the track to sobriety, saved his life and improved his marraige.
Rational recovery does not get a lot of press in the US. But there is some information that you might find by simply searching Rational Recovery or try
www.rational.org .
Best wishes to you.
