my boyfriend is unsupportive. when i was the hospital for bipolar depression he wouldnt even visit me because he thought it was "too weird." ive been out for a few weeks and the depression is still lingering, along with anxiety issues. im back to work part time, and he works full time. i have a lawyer and im trying for disability, but it could take up to a year and a half. in the mean time, we're struggling financially and it's causing alot of stress. he's refused to get another part-time job because he thinks it's unfair that he has to work so much and I don't. in addition, he expects the house to be spotless, all chores completely done everyday, since im home half the day, no excuses. he doesn't understand it takes me half the day to muster up enough energy to take a shower just to go to work for 5 hours in the evening. he makes cutting remarks about everything, about lazy i am, about easy i have things, etc etc. he also says things like how much fun i USED to be, how much fun we USED to have and how sluggish and boring I am now. I used to feel comforted and safe around him and now my anxiety just spirals out of control around him. I don't know what to do anymore. Any advice would be appreciated.
