About 8 months. I do feel strong in myself. I've realised there's really nothing more i can do to help him other than what i'm already doing. I'm just hoping it improves. He said he's felt like this before but never this bad. I can't and wouldn't force him to see a psychologist to be honest. People i know think i should leave because he's pretty much verbally abusive right now because of bottling things up and taking it out on me. I've learnt not to get emotional about it. He doesn't want to be like this but he doesn't know how to stop feeling like he does. I care about him more than anyone so i look past it and stay with him, hoping things will improve. I don't think he'd be better off without me and i don't want to give up on him when he needs me the most.
