My suicidal boyfriend won't let me leave, what should I do?
Prepare yourself for a heck of a story. It's worth a read. Okay so.. I'm 17, he's 20 and I lost everything for this guy. We've been together for 10 months now; promise rings included. We've gone through so much and I just find it overwhelming at times. I have a constant connection with him and even feel as if I can talk/cry to him about anything. Both of us are head over heels but it just feels like I'm missing something HUGE. I have a whole life ahead of myself that I wish I could experience to with no worries and complications. Here's the horrible part I've gone through for this guy. He was a bad boy.. not just any type of bad boy.. a pimp. We were basically bonnie & clyde. Which backfired since I'm co-accused for a nation wide armed robbery warrant, and a possible human trafficing charge. Now, we're on the run in a different area and I'm stuck with nothing but him. I have lost my family, friends, belongings and my f***ing life. Everytime I try breaking up to go back, he tries to kill himself and he's serious. I've physically had to hold his weight from falling off the edge of a bridge. The scariest part of this all is that we love each other so much. That's why I've stayed through it all. I'm worried that settling down right now is just too much. NOTE: We're saving up for bail, we will not be on the run in 2-3 months. He never forced me to be his side-kick, he actually wanted me to stop being involved. He's changed now; he has a job and apartment that we live in.
My boyfriend's suicidal?
Right. I swear to God, I've been there. I know you get a hell of a lot of people lying when they say this, but please, trust me, I have. I was depressed for two years, and attempted suicide twice. I only got out of it through the help of others. If he is genuinely suicidal, tell his parents, or his teacher, in confidence. If it's truly bad, call the NHS. Be warned, though, he will probably hate you for it to begin with (if he knows you're the one who told someone else) but, in the end, it will help him and he will love you for it when he's feeling better. Please, don't cheat yourself into thinking telling him you love him will work; it won't. It might for a few hours, but, depression is a mental issue; it will come back if he is not properly treated. Please note, if it really gets bad, and you have a serious concern for welfare (if he isn't answering calls, texts or anything) and you genuinely think he could be in danger, call the police or the paramedics. This may sound over dramatic, but they're trained to deal with this kind of situation. Only do this if you think he is about to commit suicide imminently, or if you think he's in the process of doing so. Please, for God's sake, do not fear about wasting police/paramedic time. You're not. This is a very serious issue. I wish you and your boyfriend all the best.
My boyfriend is suicidal, help?
Yesterday my boyfriend had to go to the hospital to be evaluated because he tried overdosing on his medication a few days ago. We ve only been dating for a month, but we already have a really close connection and I love him dearly. But I don t know how to handle this. I feel like I m not the right one for him, no matter what he tells me. If I was the right one, why would he try to leave that? I m not going to leave him, but part of me feels like I m not right for him. If I was, I could probably help him more. I m at a loss of words and I m terribly confused. I don t know what to do. His anger is out of control. He has mood swings like I ve never seen before. I know he s not right and mentally sick. And I don t think I m any help to him.he told me I m the only one keeping him here right now. But I feel like our relationship is only causing more stress and anxiety on him. He constantly worries that I m going to leave him for someone else. I just need advice. In distraught and I have no idea what to do for him right now.
My boyfriend told me he used to be suicidal?
We've been dating almost a year now. He is 25, I am 22. Today I noticed he was quiet and seemed cranky. He's told me before that he just gets like this sometimes, and doesn't want to socialize. Tonight however, I found out its more than that. He would always tell me it's not me, but I finally just said I feel like it is, and it makes me upset. Then he told me that he has tried to kill himself by overdosing when he was 19. And when he was 12, he decided that if he isnt happy by the time hes 30, he would kill himself then. He also felt suicidal last year. He says he's never told anyone before. He doesn't want to burden anyone with his problem. He doesn't know why he feels like this he said, it's just been that way since he was a kid. He told me he doesn't want to die. Now that I know this, he just makes me worried. What if he gets suicidal again. It scares me to lose him. I just want to hear any advice about the situation. He means the world to me, and I never want to think about losing him.
What should I do if my boyfriend abuses me but is suicidal?
You are in a no win situation. Give your boyfriend the number for a suicide hot line or tell him to call 911 and get out of there. Women who stay in abusive situations are 25 times as likely to be murdered than the normal population.Abuse often escalates into violence that leads to permanent disability and death. Your only option is to get out of an irrational situation that you have no control over. If you are threatened with abuse call 911 and ask for help but plan on leaving. It’s the only option. You’re not in a loving relationship, even when he tells you he loves you.
My boyfriend is having suicidal thoughts?
hi, im sorry to read of your worries and fears but from what you say he is suffering, and its not right for you to have to go through this for or with him its not something you should deal with alone. firstly have a long cold look at your relationship, is it built on love understanding patience and care, or is it more of a dependancy thing do you feel hes needy and unsettled and are you actually trying to look out for him from a purely maternal instinct as many of us girls often do early on and oneday when its out of control, we are very unhappy and split up, thats when we see it wasnt really love at all just something you do everyday like drinking tea or having brekfast. we are always led into helping men with issues its in our genetic makeup thats what makes us such good mothers and carers so before you deal with the whole gun stuff ask yourself honestly is this relationship going anywhere?. when you sit down to think it through if its more habit and he needs you so you just do it on a clockwork basis then my advice is end it now before it goes spiralling out of your control. now secondly he may need some help hes unhappy, in a dead end job maybe not really achieving what he wants from life and some depression has set in, but what you really need to do is sit him down with a plan of action that he will agree to, ie arrange a gp visit set a date to see a counciller about his mood swings depression and fears of he may kill himself, which in my experiance he wont do as its a cry for help usually speaking, maybe just that for starters and support him through it and out the other side then if its more he needs you than you need him move on and wish him all the luck in his future good luck and if you really think he may use it to demonstrate to you hes power id say call in the police quietly from say the safety of the toilet and make them aware hes got a gun and is in a desperate state of mind and hes not normally violent or extreme, and to handle with care. ok now good luck in your choices.
My boyfriend has become suicidal after I broke up with him. I don't want him to die. What should I do?
Your boyfriend needs to visit a psychologist as soon as possible.You must have seen this message appear on Quora:You can ask him to contact any of these numbers, depending on which country you belong to.The fact that he backed out after attempting to kill himself indicates that he changed his mind and had second thoughts regarding whether this is worth taking his life. However, there is no guarantee that he won't attempt again. So you need to alert whoever lives with him/near him about this situation and make sure that he is supervised.Most importantly, you need to keep your head. Do not say or do anything that might push him off the edge. If possible, try to explain to him via a phone call or Skype that you do care for him and will always do so, and that you broke up for his own good. Remind him of all the people who care for him and how they would react if he takes his life. Be as visual as possible. That might help him reconsider his impulsive decision.And, I repeat again, persuade him to take help from a counselor.Wish you all the best.
