Pleae read...I am worried about my boyfriend?


To paint you a picture. I am 24 (Female) and I live with my boyfriend (22) of 3 years very comfortably in London. I am a nurse and he is a Televison writer with the BBC. Not that it matters...but he has been involved in the writing of Murphy's law, spooks and Hustle.

Here is a pic of the both of us. I am the one sat right next to him

We have always been very. Recently I have noticed some big changes in him. He has began losing lots of weight. He gets very moody and seems to clam up a lot. I have found pills in his jacket pocket called Zoloft (Which I think my be speed).

I know this sounds odd but I have also found a metal soap tin in his pocket with a bar of soap inside which he carries around with him. He also gets very annoyed at the slightest thing such as spilling some food on his t shirt or something.

I know he is very busy with work and trying to build a career in writing...but I am really worried.

Zoloft is an antidepressant. The bar of soap could be a sign of OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder). Maybe he has the need to wash his hands often?
Sounds like psychological problems to me.

Zoloft is an antidepressant, it is also used for some other thing like restless leg syndrome . Chances are he is having problems and is seeing a doctor. Be patient and try to let him know you are concerned about his weight loss and that you are ready to talk with him when he is ready to discuss things with you.

Umm... first of all you should talk to him about it. It's true that he may just be stressed out alot but always make sure everything's alright with him. I'd suggest surprising him with a little vacation for you and him. Maybe it will help clear his mind and relax. Any more questions feel free to email me at tatiyona.smith@yahoo.com

GOOD LUCK!

Sounds like he is in a depression and trying to get help with the meds. Talk to him about how he's feeling and just try to be there for him.
