Hi. Thanks everyone. Some people just don't understand this. They think I'm exaggerating because it sounds like a made for t.v. special. I have asked him to go with me to therapy. This is probably the only way he would go. However, we live paycheck to paycheck...i'm a fulltime student, he makes very little, and we have 3 kids. And we have no health insurance. The state of TN does not give insurance to adults so just the kids have it. Otherwise, I would already be there...believe me. I have also tried to focus on the "behavior" and not him, but he only hears what he wants. In fact, everything I say he distorts for some reason. He doesn't hear me. He only hears his own thoughts. I have personal experience with depression and I know that it can come out as a very selfish behavior. I also know that it can't be helped without professional help. That is why I fear suicide....he only hears himself and does not think of the rest of us.
