i am terribly worried for my boyfriend. In the past few months he has became down, upset and worked up over little things.He has began quite short tempered and gets anoyed over tiny little things. He doesnt even appear to enjoy the things in life i know he used to love. He tells me he wakes up in the mornings still feeling tired and he as many upsetting and disturbing dreams. it seems to me his mind is never at rest and he always feels the need to worry and get worked up over something. He admitted to me he wanted to commit suicide because he felt he had nothing to live for and the only reason he has changed his mind is because i cried in front of him begging him not to. He has even admitted to being depressed when i confronted him with it. im scared to let him drive out the car by himself incase he decides to go for a ditch or a river. i understand he has a few emotional family problems and he admits to me. But only ever to me. I have advised him to get profesional help but he strongly refuses as he hates talking to people about things. he says i am the only person who knows all his problems. He always pretends to be happy to cover up the fact he isnt. Is there anything i can do myself to help turn his life around for the better and make him be the happy person he once was?
Please help
xxxxx
