I just joined PC and was pointed towards the caregiver support forum b/c my bf is struggling with depression and self medicates with alcohol. He is currently on a 72 hour mandatory hold at a mental hospital b/c he was suicidal over the weekend and I called the cops. He, of course, doesn't think he needs to be in the hospital but you don't act like he does and talk like he does and not need help!! It's so good to know that there are women that I can talk to about my struggles with trying to support my bf and trying to remember to take care of myself at the same time. It's so good to read your posts and understand exactly how you feel and know that I'm not the only one that gets angry with my loved one sometimes. I thought I was just an inconsiderate, horrible person b/c I was so fed up with how he was acting that I acted just like he was. I had had enough!! I have no idea if you ladies are still active or will even see this post but I hope you do and I hope we can get through this with the support of one another.
